2013

Race Horses spent the best part of a decade delivering curious, whimsical and - at times - devastating music. Parting company in the opening weeks of 2013, the various members have been scattered to the winds. Meilyr Jones picked himself up in London, opting to pursue something quite different. Adopting a distinctly new approach, the songwriter began assembling a much larger ensemble. Phoning friends, family, colleagues and admirers, Jones soon found himself with a 30 piece orchestra at his disposal. Debut album '2013' is the result. Brave, daring and enormously ambitious, it's released via Moshi Moshi Records. Over the 13 songs - joy and rapture are tempered by wit and keen-eyed humour, by jubilant pop melody and rock and roll muscularity. It is the sound of a young man discovering just who he is.
