The group initially came together in 2022. After a break, they regrouped with some of the original members and added some fresh faces to the mix. Claiming the San Fernando Valley as the group's roots, the journey began even though each member is spread out between SFV and North Hollywood. Despite their geographic spread, their camaraderie and shared passion for music drove their creative journey.  The current lineup includes Adrian on vocals/guitar, Amie on bass, Josue on drums, and Danny on guitar. The band's name is a tribute to Abe Vigoda, a tropical noise punk band that clearly resonated with them. When brainstorming names, Abe Vigoda's song stood out, and they knew this was it. Their music left a lasting impression, and Live Long was born from that connection. Their sound is shaped by a mix of modern and classic shoegaze influences. Bands like Whirr, My Bloody Valentine, Luster, and Nothing have had a significant impact on their music. It all started when they discovered Whirr's dreamy, swirling soundscapes, which led the exploration of other shoegaze bands. They immersed themselves in the genre, drawing inspiration from both past and present. This blend of old and new helped craft their own unique sound, one that pays homage to the shoegaze roots while pushing the boundaries of the genre.
