"One of the smaller but brightest lights on the musical landscape". (Graham Reid, Elsewhere.co.nz)
Award winning and critically acclaimed singer-songwriter from Dunedin, New Zealand. Currently based in Japan.
Has drawn comparisons to Elliot Smith, Jeff Tweedy, Chris Isaak, Grant Lee Phillips, Jeff Buckley, the Beatles, Nick Drake and Neil Finn among others. Langley’s song writing draws on a wide range of influences from the folk, pop, balladry and country traditions to create songs that have unexpected mood shifts and a lyrical sense that is both personal and poetic.
Latest release 'As real as you want it to be' (2024).

Lost companions E.P. 2007

Featherbones L.P. 2010
