Formed in 2022, Baltimore supergroup The People’s Longband plays what could broadly be considered “folk rock” interwoven with deeply psychedelic improvisation, reimagining material drawn from North American and British Isles song traditions and nearly two decades’ worth of compositions from singer/guitarist Dave Heumann (Arbouretum).

Featuring, alongside Heumann, Miles Gannett (Fractal Cat), David Bergander (Celebration, Arbouretum), Chuck Field (Several Species), and bassist Christopher Brown, the Longband’s multiple singers and instrumental soloists take songs to extended, transcendent peaks often only hinted at in their original expressions.
