Charlie Simpson: “I suffered writer’s block while making new album”

Charlie Simpson is back with his new album Long Road Home; an impressive collection that swings between breezy folk-pop and stripped-down acoustic confessionals.

The record follows his solo debut Young Pilgrim, which peaked at Number 6 on the Official Album Chart in 2011 and follows a total of seven studio LPs released as part of Busted and rock band Fightstar.
