When fans go to see A Thousand Horses in concert, the guys say they try to deliver a high-energy show the whole time and they also like to deliver a little bit of the unexpected. Zach explains, “We travel with three background singers, kinda like old school Lynyrd Skynyrd style. So that’s somethin’ that people wouldn’t necessarily expect to see if you haven’t seen us play. Maybe you’ve seen a picture of the four of us and people show up to the show and you got this whole musical treat on stage. So, that’s kinda fun.”
A Thousand Horses’ debut single, “Smoke,” is sitting in the top five, and Graham says when they perform live, “We just want the fans to have a good time and enjoy the music and get away from all their life stuff while they’re hangin’ out with us. We wanna keep it like a big family out there.”
