Horses on the Beach + Echo Den at Mr Wolfs
See event details

A gig held at Mr Wolfs on Saturday 18th January. The event starts at 21:30.


HORSES ON THE BEACH
When asked to explain what Alt-Funk is, the Bristol based band, Horses On The Beach, carefully described the steps necessary to play it. They took Soul and boiled it up with a pinch of Jazz and Funk, then expertly distilled it into a potent concoction that, if ingested, causes the consumer to throw their cares into the wind and dance like they really, really mean it.
With influences like Nuybian Twist, The Cat Empire and Deluxe, it's not surprising that their live shows are brimming with energy. Off the cuff sax solos ride the waves of their refreshing compositions that whisk you from blazing chorus to the most delicate of interludes. In 2019 they wafted their funky beats all around the country, jumping back on the festival circuit at the likes of Wonderfields, Port Elliot and Boomtown.
They boast support for many of their musical heros, such as Cut Capers, Undercover Hippy, and Land Of The Giants, and have preceded the likes of Backbeat Sound System and Bare Jams at various festivals. Countless weddings and private functions mean for hours of horse-style funk classics under their belt.
The band consists of vocals and guitar and clarinet from Louisa Hygate, Drums from Pacho Song, bass from Declan Williams and an electronically lifted brass section (trumpet&sax) from Harry Collis and Sophie Rooke.
