  • Long Day’s Journey Into Light reflects roads less travelled, and a life fully lived. Cutting a broad swath across all facets of roots music from folk to rock to americana, and most points in between, the 12 songs on the album play out like tales to be passed from generation to generation. Universal threads that would be equally at home by a peaceful campfire as they would be in a skid row back alley or a Hallmark Christmas special. Payson Lyon’s songs reflect a craftsmanship that only comes from equal parts observation and obsession, and the results are a revelation.
