Long John

Long John & The Killer Blues Collective are the result of inward journeys into Heavy Blues, Rock n Roll and alternative music over the past few years. The band have been through hell and high water along the way, with various line-ups and guest musicians, culminating with the brotherhood of Long John, Jules Fly Haffegee, Pip Mailing and Danny Page.

The band’s first album HEAVY ELECTRIC BLUES has been released on Outlaw Records.

The album has been over two years in the making covering studio sessions in Prague, London and finally Lost Boys Studios, Bedfordshire, UK.

The Album has evolved along the way says Long John-

“We began the journey with myself and Jules Fly aiming to create an original sound and vibe digging deep into our own Blues/Soul/Punk backgrounds and tapping into vintage blues vibes and deep musical roots, triggering my own personal lyrical Journey, leading me down a path to exploring my own inner demons and spiritual thoughts. You could say this album is spiritual, honest and straight from my soul”.

This record is Long John’s first venture outside his own backyard of the Long John Laundry camp-

“It was a trip into the unknown. This album differs from the others as it’s really from my heart. I feel it naturally just flowed out of me, nothing was forced, that’s why it’s taken time to evolve”.

Joining Long John in bringing the groove is Jules ‘Fly’ Haffegee on Bass. Jules and LJ have a long-time partnership in writing and playing, having both toured extensively in the USA and Europe in previous incarnations including The Silver Brazilians and Long John Laundry.
