Studio 9 Presents 5 Pound Horse
5 Pound Horse has created a regional and international buzz around electric live performances where anything’s on the table — French-language songs, banjos, marimbas, melodies from Africa and Ireland and anywhere else they draw inspiration. They’ve graced Berkshires institutions like The Dream Away Lodge and MASS MoCA’s FreshGrass Festival, appeared at Pittsburgh venues like the Thunderbird Music Hall and James Simon’s sculpture studio Pittsburgh PA, and thrown legendary parties at their home BarN in Williamstown, MA. They toured Europe in 2024 playing as The Durgas and 5 Pound Horse combined into one group. The band are poised to record their first EP with producer Ronan Chris Murphy (King Crimson, etc).
Heart-stirring, original, and epiphany-inducing, 5 Pound Horse is ready to ride into a town near you for a night to remember. Saddle up!
