about

The debut full-length Long Branch record! "Dreamy twang one minute, driving folk-rock the next, followed by flawless forays into underground punk-psychedelia and blissed-out, guitar-fuzz ballads. There’s nothing quite like Found the Setting Sun ... complete and fully realized ... a wildly accomplished debut." Andrea Warner, CBC, May 2018, Long Branch CBC First Play Review

"This is rock 'n roll played with passion and skill ... The band has quickly made a mark on the T.O. circuit and is clearly ready for prime time." Kerry Doole, FYI Music News, May 25, 2018

"This Toronto outfit have become a consistent live favourite over the past few years, with a 2016 45 only building anticipation for the long-awaited debut LP. Heightened expectations can be dangerous, but Long Branch meet them all the way, delivering a superb footlong. The music is by turns warm and tense, comfortingly beautiful and bracingly energetic, full of hooks and neatly balancing various strains of country, punk, and even psychedelia. The production and mastering too are wonderful, with rich, almost languid guitar tones, electrifying leads and a full, spacious sound that never veers toward the sterile. A highly recommended album from a group to watch out for, whether this is the first you’ve heard of them, or you share my own delight in hearing such choice live cuts as ‘Rising Tide’ finally committed to wax." Ugly Pop Records, 2018

"You’d be forgive if you thought you’d time-traveled back to the 90s while listening to Long Branch’s debut LP. The Toronto-based band whips up a storm in a teacup with indie rock that is anchored in the low end and expansive in its reach." Adobe and Teardrops, June 2018

"Since last year's well-received debut LP Found the Setting Sun (DWRecords), the band has continued to develop a loyal following for the heartfelt poetry and sweet toughness undergirding their melodic guitar lines and layered harmonies." Toronto International Film Festival, Festival Street, 2019
