Ryan Long is a storyteller who seems to help me find ’the suburbs of Eden’ in his art for the recounting of life’s panoply of simple moments.

There are some recordings whose depth and sophistication defy easy description. Ryan Long’s newest release, Waiting by the Window is one of those albums. The intimate, multi-layered lyrics are set in acoustic guitar-driven arrangements that perfectly complement the complex content and mood of each song. To hear this album is to be enlarged.
