Leon Bridges shares ‘So Long’, announces Brixton show

New track appears on the motion picture soundtrack for ‘Concussion’.

Leon Bridges has written a song for Will Smith-starring movie ‘Concussion’. It’s called ‘So Long’, and it’s a breathtaking, strung out ballad that follows on from his debut album ‘Coming Home’.

Alongside the new track, the Forth Worth, Texas songwriter has announced a London show for next year. He’ll headline Brixton Academy on Friday 8th April. Get tickets via TicketWeb.
