Phil Stoodley - 'Long Way From Home'

Phil Stoodley’s new single ‘Long Way From Home’ is an acoustic pop/ folktrack about refection, love, loss, self-discovery, and finding home within yourself while walking new paths. Produced and recorded by Phil in New Zealand, the song appears on his previously released debut album No Surprise.

Performing in Japan each year, Phil revels in the country’s culture, people and landscapes.

Inspired to share his experiences, ‘Long Way From Home’s music video was shot amongst Tokyo’s vivid street life over three blue-knuckled winter nights, following Phil’s journey from rooftops to sake bars, alleyways, and taxi rides, soaking up the sights and sounds.

"Tokyo is so rich in food, fashion and culture with amazing scenery.” says Phil. “ And the people are wonderful, sweet and very polite. Sometimes it feels like you're on another planet. Japan is by far one of my most favourite places to travel, and it would have seemed a waste not to take advantage of the geographical location to shoot a music video."
