About Me

real editor best profile tools real editor best profile tools
A musician living in Cary, NC, Joshua Long is always striving to be the best performer he can be. His songs come straight from his life and experiences, whether good or bad. Sometimes they are to help him get past something, or to put a smile on a friend’s face, or to tell his wife how much he desperately loves her. With each song, Joshua hopes to first rock the people who hear it, and then maybe help them out a little bit. It's music that's meant to be fun and meaningful at the same time.
Joshua's sounds draws from all ages of rock, and would be great for fans of Switchfoot, Daughtry, Gin Blossoms, Dashboard Confessional, etc. He regularly performs solo as well as with his 3-piece band. Both are fun, energetic experiences well worth checking out.
