A Thousand Horses is made up of Zach Brown, Michael Hobby, Graham DeLoach and Bill Satcher, and their sound is a mixture of all their personalities and influences. “We all draw from stuff that we grew up listenin’ to,” says Zach. “Classic Rock to Old Country, Blues. Musically, I think we’re influenced by a lotta that stuff. Lyrically, we’re definitely influenced by a lotta Country stuff.”
They love the fact that country music is all about the story because Zach says, “We try to tell a story in all of our songs and hope that people get something out of everything.”
You can hear A Thousand Horses’ debut story in their single, “Smoke,” which will be featured on their debut album, Southernality, available this summer.

Zach Brown – “I think our sound’s just kinda like it’s a mixture of a lotta things. The cool thing about a band is you got four different personalities and influences comin’ into it and we all draw from stuff that we grew up listenin’ to, Classic Rock to Old Country, Blues. Musically, I think we’re influenced by a lotta that stuff. Lyrically, we’re definitely influenced by a lotta Country stuff, so it’s like, you know how Country Music is all about the story, we try to tell a story in all of our songs and hope that people get something out of everything, But yeah, our music’s just kind of a mixture of those influences and it’s just us.”
