“…like Chicago blues fired at the moon, played by the demented children of the Pretty Things.” Rolling Stone
“DADDY LONG LEGS takes the blues and turns them inside out, upside down, round about and renews their primal energy. My favorite rompin’ stompin’ New York band of the moment.” Lenny Kaye
“Masters of arcane blues secrets” Human Being Lawnmower Magazine
”Music to start a juke joint brawl to” Bibliodiscoteque
”Pull-the-chord-and-let-the-snot-fly-blues” Relix Magazine
”these drunken cowboys with fuzzy mics and rip-roaring harmonica solos are the most authentic band you’ve seen all week.” Esquire
Daddy Long Legs – New York City’s most explosive Rhythm & Blues street gang aren’t back, they never left. In dark times they continue to shine their light everywhere they go leaving a piece of themselves on stage every night because it’s in them and it’s got to come out. Now the boys make their highly anticipated post pandemic return to the UK + EU in October and unveil their new killer 4 piece format with Dave Klein on Piano who joins the original lineup of Brian Hurd (Lead Vocals/Blues Harp) Murat Aktürk (Guitars/Vocals) and Josh Styles (Drums/Maracas).
It’s been 2 1/2 long years since the boys toured the UK + EU playing their last gig in Dublin just hours before the lockdown officially kicked in. In the meantime the Brooklyn 4 piece have cooked up a new album to follow up the genre defying “Lowdown Ways” released on Yep Roc Records in 2019. Stay tuned for details on the new release coming early next year.
