Long Time Caller, First Time Listener

Long Time Caller, First Time Listener is the follow-up to rising London indie / alt country combo Vegas Water Taxi’s cult favourite debut LP things are gonna be alright from 2023.

Combining their acclaimed long time caller EP with its follow-up first time listener, it showcases vwt leader Ben Hambro’s knack for deadly funny songwriting that doesn’t shy away from the all-too-real sadness at it’s core.

Perfectly bottling the cultural zeitgeist, VWT refracts the swaggering charm of Americana through a distinctly British prism; swapping US road trips, trucks and dive bar whiskey, for late-night Overground rides, Dalston creative director gossip and scampi fries in the Spurstowe Arms.

For fans of Silver Jews, Wilco, Stephen Malkmus, MJ Lenderman, Courtney Barnett, Greg Freeman, Brown Horse, Ryan Davis and The Roadhouse Band
