The Story Behind The Long Way Home

Home is sometimes a place, sometimes a person, and sometimes the man you become along the way.

The Long Way Home is a record about the roads that shape us — the people we lose, the people we love, the lives we build, and the places that continue calling us back.

It moves between youthful memory, romantic electricity, hard-won perspective, fatherhood, resilience, and the quiet realization that home is sometimes a place, sometimes a person, and sometimes the man you become along the way.
