The Long Ryders en Barcelona

The Long Ryders return with High Noon Hymns, a new chapter for a band that since the 1980s has bridged the legacy of Gram Parsons and the Flying Burrito Brothers with the generation that spawned projects like Wilco and The Jayhawks. Their blend of country roots and muscular rock defined a no‑frills approach to Americana: songs with edge, guitars up front and clear melodies.

Their breakthrough came with Native Sons, which made inroads into US alternative and college radio, and continued with State Of Our Union and the now‑essential Looking For Lewis & Clark. A trajectory that established their distinctive sound and a direct way of playing and writing.

On 29 April 2026, at Sala Upload in Barcelona, they will present High Noon Hymns live and revisit the songs that have shaped their history. A set that mixes recent material with cuts from their key albums, preserving the electric tension and melodic clarity that distinguish them. An occasion to hear how their repertoire still seamlessly blends past and present, true to a pulse that has not faded with the years.
