New single out 19th September 2025
Two years after the release of The Well, Ralph Beeby & the Elephant Collective finally return with a slew of new singles, the first of which...is this one.
Long Road Home tells the story of a lonely drifter who stumbles across a strange little town in the middle of nowhere...and immediately wants to get back out. It’s a haunting mix of Blues and Gothic Americana, decorated with a shimmering lead guitar and punctuated by “found” sounds where you’d normally expect drums.
And you can hear it right here:
Blending the sounds of Classic Blues and Rock with the dark, artistic stylings of Nick Cave and Tom Waits: Ralph Beeby & the Elephant Collective present a dramatic new take on modern Blues-Rock.

"[Like] Screamin' Jay Hawkins singing half-remembered Appalachian murder ballads...with Deep Purple's Jon Lord also along for the ride" - Norman Darwen, Blues in the South
“This is a very individual take on the blues, and the theme of a down-at-heel touring carnival certainly suits the music. Weird, maybe, but certainly interesting too.”
Norman Darwen, Blues in the South
“The guitar work is exemplary...I'm not going to claim this is going to be for everyone, but I found it a rich, dark experience”
Stuart A Hamilton, Blues Matters! Magazine
