Incorporating power-pop and indie-rock, Charley Horse is a band formed in 2022 and based in Austin, Texas. It features three guitarists (Lincoln Dunn, Doug Finch, and Glenn Gomez), a bass guitarist (Jordan Garrett), and a drummer (Kevin Cavanagh), with all five members contributing to writing and singing.
Charley Horse’s current single ‘Ball Cap’, was followed by the release of the band’s Foothills EP last week. The new EP was recorded in Austin, Texas with Chad Doriocourt and consists of three songs they’ve been playing over the last year. The titular track is a sprawling song that builds up over time and features a simple melody that is gradually elevated by harmonies and complex guitar riffs. “Rodeo” is more of a new wave/surf/psychedelic romp that features fun lead and bass guitar riffs and is driven by powerful drums and jangling rhythm guitars. The last track, “Ball Cap”, is drenched in catchy guitar riffs, a smooth trumpet part, and is carried along by an infectious drum beat and bassline.
