Long Division is a five piece instrumental rock band from Norfolk, Virginia. Incorporating a wide variety of influences, they have been compared with such bands as Appleseed Cast, Minus the Bear and Explosions in the Sky.

The band formed in the early parts of Winter of 2009 when co-workers Wesley Bunch(guitar) and Doug Nicholson(guitar) decided to form a band and began playing with a couple of new friends. Those friends were CJ Weil(bass, trumpet) and his life long friend Andrew Lane(guitar). They quickly began playing shows with different drummers, solidifying their lineup with the addition of Joel Parker(Drums) in the Summer.

In the late Fall and early Winter of 2009 Long Division went into Clay Garden Studio in Norfolk and recorded their first record entitled, Calm Before, which was self-released May 1st, 2010 on CD and Digital formats.
