Highways And Backdoors

Tearing through the Orange County punk scene comes the band LONGWAY;
playing Rock n’ Roll Punk the way you remember it, loud, fast, and in your face.
With an arsenal of songs you'd swear were written about you, this band hits home
in a way that might change your life, break your heart, or as ‐DAVE SEGAL of OC
WEEKLY puts it ..."when you see LONGWAY in the flesh, you will hurl your damn
self around the pit like dear old papa did, back when Johnny was Rotten and
unleashed Thunders."
Their debut album "Come'n Get it!" on Old Shoe Records gained LONGWAY an
international fan base that has turned into a loyal LONGWAY tattoo baring, fist pumping, dysfunctional punk
rock family. LONGWAY's new album "Junkie" keeps the Rock n' Roll Punk torch burning bright as it rolls through
12 blistering songs and contributes the single “Out There” to the 2010 Vans Warped Tour compilation CD.
LONGWAY has taken up support roles for bands like Bad Religion,
NOFX, Face to Face, The HorrorPops and many more. Hand picked to
play the Vans Warped Tour by Kevin Lyman in 2008, they were invited
back in 2009, and continue to be a fan favorite as they join the tour
again in 2010.
After years of rockin’ and rollin’, rising and falling, fighting to stay alive
and never giving in, LONGWAY is at the top of their game with no
signs of stopping. With the current lineup of Brian on Vox/Guitar,
Mikey on Drums, Trevor on Guitar, and Tim on Bass, each member brings his own brand of life to the music.
During the show you will see the band on the bar, in the crowd, or you may end up on stage singing with the
guys. Recently signed to Libertalia Entertainment and touring to support their new album "Junkie", LONGWAY
emerges as a stand alone headliner that can't be dismissed.
