Ironically An Horse at Iron Horse

On your mark. Get set. Go!

Not to wear out the puns, but An Horse is really poised to make their imprint as the newest in a line of funky pop duos to emerge in recent years. The melodic/smart/latte-loving pop sound of the Australian duo of Kate Cooper and Damon Cox is just itching to jump into the newest Old Navy ads.

I admit, this kind of Tegan and Sara, Bell and Sebastian sound is not for everyone all-day, everyday, however I guarantee your toes will have difficulty resisting an all out tapfest during songs like "Postcards." Coincidentally, Mercedes Benz thinks similary. The luxury car company recently used the song in a commercial. Could the zippy sound of An Horse be enough to bail out the auto-trauma stiking the nation? I'm doubtful.

The great thing about An Horse: They want to travel all the way from Australia to share their love and tunes with the Valley. Ok, they were going to be in the states for a tour anyways, but we can pretend this trip is intimate can't we?I suggest you come see them will fellow indie troubadour Telekinesis (Michael Benjamin Lerner) at the Iron Horse on June 12. Buy tickets here NOW!

If not, check them at one of the other dates below. Also, I've attached a cool An Horse "widget" so you can see for yourself.

PS: If you are at the show, stop by and say hello to Pioneer in the Valley!
