Toy Horses

They recently went to Nashville to record their debut album with Wilco's Ken Coomer, became Nic Harcourt's (KCRW DJ, Music Editor LA Times) & Steve Lamacq's pick of SXSW and saw Stephen Fry proclaim Toy Horses his "new favourite indie band" to his 3.3m followers on Twitter. If you take in to consideration that all of this has happened without any active self-promotion, you start to see a genuine, natural phenomenon.

Début album 'Toy Horses' (released 2011) has been a critical success ("Critical List -- The Independent, "Album Of The Week" -- Daily Mirror, ***1/2 -- Rolling Stone, "Timeless Classic" -- Music Week, "The best thing to come out of Wales since the M4″ -- Hit Sheet) and was among the early bookies favourites for the 2011 Mercury Prize.

Having received fantastic live reviews for their first headline UK and European tour, 2012 is shaping up to be a very exciting year for Toy Horses.
