Wooden Horse play blues, well country blues, or maybe Americana – don’t know. Anyhow they certainly love playing it and the ingredients of Slide Guitar, Stomp Box, Banjo and Harmonica laced with Harmonies make up a mighty tempting musical feast.

Wooden Horse Latest
A busy few weeks – probably highlighted by our slot at the Hebden Blues Festival, the sun was out and Yorkshire looked particularly beautiful as we drove up and played to a great listening crowd.
There were some kind words said about us:http://bluesmaninhat.blogspot.co.uk/
- and someone has put a little video up:

However the best news is that the album is all done and just needs a tweak of mastering magic to have it ready. Then it’s off to the Wooden Horse creative arts department to make it look pretty.
Couple of great sessions coming up in June – check out our Events page, we have the ICC ‘Folk for free’ in Brum (Stu gets to join us on a grand piano – so he’s well up for it). We are also really excited to be doing a session for the legendary Barry Marshall-Everitt and his House of Mercy (https://www.houseofmercy.tv/HOMHome.php).
Hope to see you out there!

“From love to loss, this EP’s got it covered with top notch playing and some equally fine vocal performances. This is one horse, wooden or otherwise, that’s well worth backing”.
“It’s a measure of their collective skills that this stuff really sounds like it’s from the US, not always an easy trick to pull off”.
