Overview
- The song went live February 13 on Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music via official Vampire Lestat artist pages that AMC stood up this week.
- 'Long Face' was written and composed by series composer Daniel Hart and performed by Sam Reid in character as Lestat.
- AMC frames the release as a marketing tie-in for Interview With the Vampire Season 3, retitled The Vampire Lestat and premiering this summer, with additional singles planned before launch.
- New synopsis details point to Lestat's multi-city tour, visitations from past 'muses,' and rising influence set against a growing threat known as the Great Conversion.
- Hart cites David Bowie’s glam era as a key influence on Lestat’s sound, while an in-character statement from Lestat playfully critiques Hart’s production choices.
