After a sell-out gig at London’s Roundhouse The Black Cab Sessions managed to knab a couple of band members for a next morning cab session. According to the site, the guys were very hungover. I thought they performed well despite this. The shades maybe helped.
They made a big impact at SXSW this year and they released their third full-length LP, entitled ‘Infinite Arms’, back in May through Columbia Records.
Band of Horses is Ben Bridwell, Creighton Barrett, Ryan Monroe, Tyler Ramsey and Bill Reynolds.

Produced by Band of Horses with additional production from Phil Ekandmixed by Dave Sardy, the songs on ‘Infinite Arms’ project the essence of the different locales across America that became the setting for the recording and songwriting process behind the album. The rich musical heritage of Muscle Shoals, AL, the sublime beauty of Asheville’s Blue Ridge Mountains, the glamorous Hollywood Hills and the vast Mojave desert all influenced the sounds on ‘Infinite Arms’ and helped yield the group’s most focused and dynamic recordings to date. The serene woods of Northern Minnesota and the band’s native Carolinas inspired the songwriting, lending the compositions an air of comfort and familiarity.
