RED HORSE

Red Horse, the debut album from folk’s newest supergroup featuring Eliza Gilkyson, John Gorka and Lucy Kaplansky. Together these three veteran songwriters team up to cover each other’s songs and breathe new life into old favorites. Awash in gorgeous harmonies and simple acoustic production, this album is sure to be an instant folk classic and a big hit with fans. Although they have been friends for years and recorded on each other's albums,Red Horseis the first truly collaborative effort by Eliza, John and Lucy. Inspired by shows they did together during Red House’s 25th Anniversary Tour, they decided to make a recording together, which has been a treat for all involved. The three friends began by recording their basic tracks in their hometowns of Austin, TX, Stillwater, MN and New York City. Then they worked out the harmonies while on the road together and when they converged for a few days in St. Paul this spring. The result is a perfect patchwork of new and old songs, mixing traditional folk and contemporary Americana. Displaying their impressive talents as writers, singers and musicians, Red Horse shows why Eliza Gilkyson, John Gorka and Lucy Kaplansky are three of folk music’s most popular artists and why their music speaks to fans of all generations.
