After years dedicated to rowdy, high-energy live shows, providing tour support for Old Crow Medicine Show, Travis Tritt, Sam Bush, and Shooter Jennings---and building their own grassroots cult-following---Strung Like a Horse teamed up with Transoceanic Records and Grammy-winning producer, Matt Ross-Spang (Jason Isbell, John Prine, Margo Price, Calexico/Iron & Wine, Lucero), to record their first studio album, WHOA!, at Nashville's famed Sound Emporium. Most of the tracks were laid down with the band playing together in one pass, without overdubs, making it a “record that captures the vibe of their rightfully celebrated live shows perfectly.” WHOA! has been on the Top 40 at Americana radio (18 consecutive weeks), Top 40 at Triple A radio, #2 on the Billboard Bluegrass albums chart, #1 on Amazon New Releases, No Depression’s “Best Roots Music Albums of 2020,” and Alternate Root’s “Top 100 Albums for 2020.”
“One-of-a-kind group…Americana like no one else.”
