10,000 Horses

10,000 Horses is a new(ish) musical collaboration between myself and Stephen Lawson. Our name is inspired by Khutulun, the Mongol warrior princess, niece of Kublai Khan, who pledged to marry the man who would defeat her in a wrestling match. She died, undefeated. Through her victories, she accumulated 10,000 horses, eventually wedding a man of her choice. We were overjoyed to be asked to open for baroque witch-pop heroes Blood and Glass last week. This week, we’ll help celebrate the launch of Cat Kidd’s new book/cd Hyena Supoena at Montreal’s newest live music venue La Vitrola To hear a sample of 10,000 Horses’ dreamy torch folk, click HERE.
