Our first in person live music event inside The Rockfield Centre
A special ‘trio’ show, focussing on songs from ‘the same sky’ album, as well as a back catalogue selection. Performing alongside Horse McDonald, Lorna Thomas bass/ vocals and Gemma Roberts Piano/Vocals.
The classic, ‘The Same Sky’, the first Horse album, was released in 1990. This began an incredible career which continues to this day, the iconic voice as strong as ever.
The actual 30th anniversary of the album was of course 2020, but as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, all UK tour dates have now been rescheduled to Spring 2022. In the interim, Horse has prepared a special ‘trio’ show. In this she will focus on the songs from ‘the same sky’ as well as a selection from the rest of her back catalogue.
“The songs from ‘the same sky’ are a big part of people’s lives and hopefully this set will go some way to bringing many memories back.”
Horse has had the honour of having her portrait painted by London based artist, Roxana Halls. This has been acquired for the nation and is currently hanging in the Great Hall of The National Portrait Gallery of Scotland.
Horse is currently working on her next studio album. She is accompanied by Gemma Roberts on piano and Lorna Thomas on bass, both also singing.
