Americana singer/songwriter Roger Street Friedman has released new album Long Shadows, which finds him “turning his eye towards past events, some close to home and others a world away.”

Along with the album, Friedman has shared the video for “Just How It Feels,” which finds him singing “an ode to the human condition and the little voice in our heads saying we can always do better.”

Friedman says:

Making Long Shadows has truly been one of the most profound highlights of my musical journey. To see my vision—for both the sonic and emotional landscape of the world represented on the album—come to life feels nothing short of miraculous. It was a leap of faith that I even attempted to produce the album, and to have the result be so personally gratifying and so well received is just incredible to me. 

Long Shadows marks the first time Friedman has taken the reins as Producer, following his work with Grammy-winning producer Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan, Levon Helm) on previous records. Friedman also enlisted some of his closest friends to help on the album including drummer Justin Guip (Levon Helm Band), bassist Andy Hess (Gov’t Mule, The Black Crowes) and keyboardist Jeff Kazee (Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, Bon Jovi).
