I had a plan to record a handful of songs at my parents’ cabin over the New Year holiday at the start of 2023 but my TEAC 2340 had other ideas. This tape machine was saying “write, don’t record”… and that was a good tip. Sometimes I’m hasty with that red button and don’t have songs fully shaped before the tape is rolling. I still let that happen musically and I let the moment and the machine be the producer but lyrically, the songs on Music For Horses feel complete and really personal.
