What their label says...
Straight outta Brooklyn, NYC, The Essex Green are here with a new platter on 19th May, their first official UK release. The band count the Strokes amongst their fanbase but the Essex Green steer a very different path to their city friends. 'The Long Goodbye' is an album bound and ready to lead its people from the Land of Nod, out of winter slumber into the spring of pop heaven.This time the band veer left toward the intersection of male/female led pop melodies and the billowy wave of rock and roll. The end result is a sound that only these three longtime friends could create, unique in its sincere character and sweeping tenor. With 'The Long Goodbye', the Essex Green traipse the hallowed halls of folk tradition, new wave and classic rock.
