In 2017, the individual members of the Longbottoms have achieved many musical successes. Most recently Amanda and John appeared in the hit paranormal folk opera “The Gallow Walkers”. Mosman was recently honored by supporting country music legend Roy Clark as an opening act. Mosman also received 2nd place in the 2017 Woody Guthrie Songwriting Contest. Jeremy Hall and his wife Holly are the brains behind the music and history podcast “The Most Wonderful Wonder”. Justin Fortney is regarded as one of the most tasteful songwriters in Oklahoma with an unforgettable voice. Justin is also credited as being one of the main organizers of Red Brick Nights Festival.

Each ‘Longbottom’ brings their own respective style to the table. Neville and the Longbottoms are best described as a roots rock band incorporating instruments from fiddle, banjo, and harmonica to electric guitar and drums topped with 4 part vocal harmonies.
