About Horse

Buy the latest album - 'Coming Up For Air' - date tbc

Horse McDonald is a unique talent. A musician all of her life, her career has spanned three decades, seven albums, eight singles, hundreds of live appearances, and the inevitable ups and downs of life in the creative spotlight. She has performed alongside artists as diverse as Tina Turner, Robbie Williams, Burt Bacharach, Bryan Ferry, BB King, Aztec Camera, Nanci Griffith, Sir Ian McKellen, Lesley Garrett, Pet Shop Boys, All Saints, Kid Creole, Culture Club, Erasure, Martha Wainwright. She is highly appreciated by a large and enthusiastic fan base. A brave artist, she sees no boundaries to her genre, having performed live with the Scottish Chamber Orchestra at the famous Barrowland(subsequently released as a live album - Both Sides). She has also appeared on legendary 1980s TV show The Tube. In 1998 she staged the Our Lips Shouldnt Touch show over a ten night run at the drill hall in London, singing everything from Doris Day to Gluck via Madonna. The same year she performed at both Celtic Connections and the Edinburgh International Festival.

Following an album of covers - Coveted, and a critically acclaimed live album Only all of me, Horse followed these with a studio album - working with her trademark energy, creativity, and enthusiasm. The single, "Same Old, Same Old" was a taster for the album "Red Haired Girl", released on randan and licensed to Kosmicmusic in the states.

The latest album Coming up for air produced by Bob Sadler is now complete and can be bought here pre release. The writing for this album began with and ran through various bereavements for Horse, family and friends. Her mum died first followed very quickly by her dad. This of course devastated her but she found the writing cathartic. Some of the songs are of her experience through this sad time, her sense of loss and in the case of her dad - not being able to say goodbye. Not all of the tracks relate to loss however. In the pot are songs about jealousy, lust, hope and uplifting moments of fun.

Horse McDonald has been described as an artist 'who wouldn't have been out of place on the stax or motown labels in their heyday'. Often called 'the voice', she has an amazing pedigree, is utterly unique, and continues to astonish.
