Long Tall Jefferson is the alias of the Swiss indie folk singer-songwriter Simon Borer, who has carved a distinct niche in contemporary folk music with his soothing voice and deft storytelling. Initially emerging in the music scene with his debut album "I Want My Honey Back" in 2016, Long Tall Jefferson has been recognized for his introspective lyricism and his ability to blend traditional folk sounds with a modern sensibility.

Over the years, Long Tall Jefferson has continued to evolve, releasing a sequence of singles and albums that showcase his growth as an artist. His discography, which includes recent releases like "Löwenzahnhonig" and "Freefall," reflects a thematic and sonic journey through personal experiences, often centered around themes of communication, introspection, and the ephemerality of life. With songs such as "Moewe" and "Sunnestore," he has managed to maintain a consistent thread of authenticity while exploring new soundscapes, as evidenced by the experimental nature of remix projects like "Cloud Folk (Remixes)" and "Angela (Kalabrese Remix)." Long Tall Jefferson's work is a reflection of his dedication to his craft, providing listeners with a thoughtful and engaging musical experience that resonates well beyond the Swiss borders where he began his career.
