==An American troubador==
Larry Long's work is rooted in the troubadour tradition. Throughout his long career he has written and performed hundreds of ballads celebrating community builders and history makers. He sang for Rosa Parks at the 45th anniversary of the Montgomery Bus Boycott and organized the Mississippi river Revival, a decade-long campaign to clean up the Mississippi river.〔Grue, 1995〕 In 1989, he assembled the first hometown tribute to Woody Guthrie in Okemah, Oklahoma, which today has evolved into the annual Woody Guthrie Folk Festival with an array of established and upcoming artists.
Now a Smithsonian Folkways recording artist, Long has sung at major concerts and festivals throughout the United States and world. In May, 2009, he performed at Madison Square Garden with Joan Baez and others for Pete Seeger's 90th Birthday Celebration. PBS broadcast the concert nationally as part of its Great Performances series.
