about
They Shoot Horses Don't They are an 8 piece band from Vancouver, BC Canada. They have a distinctive noisy oompa sound thanks to a horn section. The band has been compared to the likes of The Danielson Family, Captain Beefheart and Thinking Fellers Union Local 282. Their debut album “Boo Hoo Hoo Boo” was released on Kill Rock Stars on February 21st, 2006 and their second album "Pick Up Sticks" was released in 2007. Their startling energetic live shows have won them listeners and even dancers throughout Canada where they have shared the stage with bands like The Unicorns and Xiu Xiu. Lyrical themes of desperation, betrayal and hardship are brought to interesting light in this overly joyful jittery music. Extensive touring in the US and Canada is planned to support this release.
