Band Of Horses

Band of Horses is an American Rock band from Seattle. It currently has five members- all of which are male. Their record label is Sub Pop Records who are an independent record label also based in Seattle, Washington.

Their first album received its deserved recognition in Sweden and Norway, yet didn't quite reach the album charts in their desired markets of USA and UK.

Their genre is defined as:
  • Indie Rock
  • Southern Rock
  • Alternative Country
depending on the source used to define their music.

They wear leather, military coats and checkered shirts, with dark coloured slim fit jeans. They tend to wear dark clothing rather than vibrant bold colours. This I feel fits hand in hand with the type of music they produce. There is nothing attention seeking about their music nor their clothing. They do what they want in every aspect of their lives, not seeming to care about the negativity they may receive. This is admirable of young people; in particular, those who fall into the 'alternative' category who appreciate expressing themselves as different through their clothing and appearance.
