Feel lucky to have seen Brown Horse again in a small intimate venue. A brilliant group of musicians with a charming self effacing front man and now three albums of alt-country/ indie-twang songs.

A fantastic night seeing Brown Horse at The Face Bar as part of Independent Venue Week. The band were excellent and seemed genuinely touched to have such a packed audience. My first gig of the year and it has set the bar high.

Brown Horse hail from East Anglia, England, and draw on the textures of folk and country alongside the driving guitars of alternative rock. Their debut album Reservoir (2024) earned acclaim for blending slacker-rock riffs with twangy instrumentation and brooding lyrical depth. Their sophomore record All The Right Weaknesses (2025) was tracked live in just one week and sees the band pushing further—with elements of folk, alt-country and guitar-driven intensity.
With a sound that evokes Lucinda Williams, Silver Jews and The Breeders yet remains distinctively their own, Brown Horse combine weariness, honesty and a sharp melodic sense. As they tour across the UK and prepare to bring their live energy to more venues, this group stands out for its songwriting strength, musical cohesion and a willingness to embrace contrast—between quiet reflection and full-bodied rock.
