HORSE OPERA – SOUNDS OF THE DESERT

“Sounds of the Desert” is the studio debut from Austin, TX honky-tonk band HORSE OPERA. Firmly rooted in the classic country sounds of the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s, Horse Opera crafts a sound both unique and familiar, comfortable like an old pair of jeans. Horse Opera sings songs of the human condition, something for everyone, and they consider it their personal responsibility to keep real country music fresh and alive. Recorded and engineered at the band’s studio, “gato negro”, the album is a product of Horse Opera’s DIY mentality. They book their own tours, make their own records, and apply their punk rock upbringing to the world of the travelling country band. “Horse Opera plays so fiercely and with such commitment to hard country music that wherever their music is playing is a place you wanna be” (The Bluegrass Special.com)
