Trojan Horse give away album!


Our favourite new prog overlords, Trojan Horse, are celebrating hitting 10,000 plays on Bandcamp by launching a new website & giving the album away for free before heading out on tour.

Formed back in 2007, Trojan Horse’s success has been long overdue, the group’s strong belief in a DIY aesthetic finally paying dividends this year with the sold out launch of Trojan Horse in Manchester, support from BBC 6music and Drowned In Sound, support slots with the likes of Vessels and Beecher and appearances at breakthrough underground festivals Sounds From The Other City and Fat Out Fest as well as playing for Love Music Hate Racism. You can now catch up on all the latest ‘Horse news at http://trojanhorseuk.com including latest touring dates.

Made up of brothers Nick (vocals/guitar,) Lawrence (bass/vocals,) and Eden Duke (keyboards/vocals) as well as drummer Guy Crawford, the prog-rockers have a slew of Autumn gigs coming up, including shows with Secret Chiefs 3 and Zun Zun Egui as well as a brace of London shows including the Transient Constellations all-dayer at Brixton’s Windmill. Trojan Horse are a force that seem to be only gathering momentum, their penchant for the diverse and bombastic forging together with ever more exhilarating results, the next instalment set to be an EP to be released before the end of the year. For now don’t miss your chance to download, for free, one of the finest albums to come out of Manchester this year. For more info go to http://trojanhorse.co.uk.
