This is an epic masterpiece by the incredible Steve Bonham and The Long Road, wow fabulous, it takes you on such a journey !

Helena Mace - Hangover Hill TV and top country singer

Steve writes the most amazing stories and what is astonishing is how he turns them into songs - his observational writing is  probably the best there is  Simon Birds, Country Music UK.

Moonshine Elegy is for the outlaw, the rebel, the individual, the hobo, the maverick within. The songs here are of the trail and the road, the backwoods and the wilderness. 
If you like your music raw, powerful, mysterious, timeless taking ingredients from Americana, Blues, Alt. Country, Folk, Roots Rock, Acoustic, a little swampy, with a touch of fire - it's for you !

There are four tracks on this EP.  Moonshine Running is good ol’ piece of country rock in praise of the moonshine drivers of legend. The Ballad of Duane and Billy Marie is a change of mood, something the band do well. Enigmatic and mysterious it grew out of a trek on foot Steve made through the Appalachian forests and mountains. The structure shifts and changes with some great guitar from Kev and echoing ghostly piano from Chris. It is at once strange and yet absolutely Americana. This edgy sound is continued on Canyons in the Desert. A sense of threat, of being lost, a voice offering salvation but how real is it? The last track: Silver Moon, Silver Girl takes a New Orleansy feel with Chris’s piano letting you know exactly where it is coming from. A surreal road trip of a song
