   About Hold Your Horse Is
"Some real killer riffs being mixed into full throttle high energy rock."
Neil Richardson of RoomThirteen.

"Spiky three-piece who jerk their guitar riffs around like an epileptic at the Blackpool illuminations."
Shane Blanchard of Tastyfanzine.

"...sounds dirty, rough and beautifully horrible."
Mario Gambardella of Rapture Promotions.

“Quite simply it’s all about the riffs, rhythm, and groove. Hold Your Horse Is have it in abundance and they rock motherhumpers!”
Will Simpson of Brigade.

"You really get a sense for the musicianship of this band, which I think is a great change from the norm, and a hugely refreshing one at that."
Caz Thomson of Riotzine.

"This is good pie!!"
Guy Davis of Reuben.

"...and just in case you were thinking of tuning out ‘cause that wasn't quite loud enough for you, woah Hold Your Horse Is! ... thrashing their guitars like a mad axe man who has got out of bed, on the wrong side!’"
Steve Lamacq of BBC Radio 1.

UPDATE 11/07/09: HOKAI! Finished recording double B-side today, consists of a couple of older songs we wanted to do some justice to. We will be releasing it on iTunes in September, which will be followed by another mini-tour (if you're a promoter/venue and would like to add a date to it, feel free to get involved). Recording a Kerbdog cover next week, which is going on Kerbdog tribute compilation being released on Stressed Sumo Records (apparently the likes of Frank Turner are going to be on it as well). Got a few shows here and there over the summer, hopefully get on and write some new music for people, possibly even for you to listen to! As always, if anyone would like us to play for them whenever, wherever, get in touch and we will see what we can do. x HYHI.

We 'manage' ourselves, kind of like Fugazi but with less ethics.

holdyourhorseis@hotmail.co.uk or here for queries and bookings.

We're also on FACEBOOK so you've got no excuse to avoid us now yeah?! You want fries with that?!

Did you use an amp head/cab as well or is it, literally, Sans Amp. I'm fascinated.
I see you have a song called Christopher Walken which is funny as we were in the studio last night quite unironically trying to achieve more cowbell. Seriously.
