Luke Sweeney 'Novel Tea' LP release party

Emerging from the 2010’s San Francisco garage-rock scene as an oddball visionary and outsider pop wunderkind, **Luke Sweeney** has been enthralling audiences ever since with eclectic soundscapes ranging from finger-picked freak-folk to “riveting psychedelia, bubblegum, glam, and mellow Seventies balladry” (Austin Chronicle). The self-dubbed ‘Calm Poseur’ seamlessly traverses genres with “a power pop punch to gain the envy of Alex Chilton, Emmit Rhodes, Eric Carmen and everyone in-between and thereafter” (Week in Pop). His next release ‘Novel Tea’ is due out August 29th via Future Gods, with a series of tours to follow.

**Longplayer** is the solo project of Mikey Long, a multi-instrumentalist songwriter/musician hailing from Los Angeles. Mikey has contributed licks live and on wax with Drugdealer, Weyes Blood and many more. Longplayer dives deeper into Mikey’s songwriting, musicianship and producing. Whether recording solo or with a rotating cast of incredible musicians, Longplayer mixes genres with the classical approach to songwriting.
