about this song
“All Them Horses” was written in the wake of the catastrophic 2023 Vermont floods. Performed sporadically as an unreleased track, it became one of Kahan’s most emotional songs, which he described during a live performance as “super sad and slow.” Thematically, the song explores survivor’s guilt and the emotional displacement that can accompany sudden fame. It highlights the contrast between the narrator’s physical safety—situated in airport lounges and “ninety’s planes”—and the destruction of the land that raised him.
