Hailing from muddy Weston-super-Mare, Seb Longhorn channels his small-town sensibilities into his own personal brand of folk-rock. Be it about love, loneliness, family, feeling “cosmically obtuse” or his partner’s oil pastels, the singer-songwriter brings you along the peaks and troughs of his introspection, but always with a sense of lightness. Paired with his backing band “the Waxwings”, their thumping rhythms and melodic layers of guitars and keys energize his words, moving audiences hearts and feet both…
Based in Bristol since 2024, Longhorn has just come off his biggest gig yet at the local O2 Academy, performing with the Waxwings in The Underdog Final to a crowd 700 strong. Previously he had support slots with Gary Stringer (Reef), Mark Morriss (The Bluetones) and The Hoosiers, as well as festival slots including Groove Village, Minety and Glastonbury.
Longhorn’s latest single ‘Lost & Found’ is a bustling folk-rock anthem, with lyrics celebrating the ups and downs of life.
His other singles include ‘Dreams’, an easy-going acoustic-pop song about moving on from heartbreak; ‘The Half a Song Blues’, a foot-stomping anthem for writer’s block; and ‘Spot In A Blue Sky’, a brooding, guitar-heavy track with indie-rock colours.
In 2025 Longhorn released a live acoustic EP ‘The Living Room Sessions’, featuring raw but delicate solo performances, harkening to his acoustic troubadour influences in Paul Simon and Frank Turner.
