Soy Un Caballo – But Will Our Tears
Biography
Last year Aurelie Muller and Thomas Van Cottom released their delightful debut album, titled “Les Heures De Raison” - you may have already caught a glimpse of them featured in Blogotheque’s “Take Away Show”, or previously you may have heard Aurelie’s collaboration with Bright Eyes’ Conor Oberst.
‘Call it global village music: on “La Chambre”, Belgian boy/girl duo Soy un Caballo (Spanish translation: “I’m a horse”) and Louisville’s Will Oldham sing entirely in French over what is essentially indie-fied bossa nova. Backed by nothing but an acoustic guitar, a Rhodes piano and a brokedown rhythm preset, Oldham and Aurélie Muller sound weightless and content, their half-sighed verses resolving into sweet choral refrains. Of course, the language doesn’t hurt either; it’s downright charming to hear Oldham’s woodsy Kentuckian palette wrap itself around a French lyric.’ - Pitchfork Media

Does anyone know what happened to this band? Saw them supporting someone in Cardiff a year or two (or three) ago and loved it. Somehow forgot about them until this morning. But aside from their 2007 album it seems like they've gone quiet?

Soy Un Caballo support The High Llamas on Thurs 12th Feb for their only London date of 2009 at the wonderful Luminaire. The headliners and support have been friends since Soy Un Caballo's Thomas asked The High Llamas' Sean O'Hagan to co-produce their recent debut album after being inspired by O'Hagan's string and horn arrangements on Stereolab albums. For the uninitiated, The High Llamas' melodic but gently psychedelic pop has rubbed off, through hands-on production, remixing or arragement work by members of the band, on music by Doves, Stereolab, Super Furry Animals, Cornelius, The Boo Radleys and Turn Brakes, amongst others. http://www.myspace.com/thehighllamassongs http://www.wegottickets.com/event/41587
