Whyte Horses

Since Dom Thomas is one of the founders of the acclaimed reissue label Finders Keepers, it makes sense that his band Whyte Horses is informed by a dizzying array of musical influences. This wide sonic palette of psychedelia, library music, acid folk, Krautrock, Tropicália, yé-yé, and lounge was skillfully woven by "music-chronologist" Thomas into an accessible, hypnotic, dreamy psych-pop. Whyte Horses' first release was the single "Snowfalls" on the London-based label CRC in October 2014, followed by debut album Pop or Not in May 2016. 2018's Empty Words was a slightly less effervescent and more varied take on the bubbly pop of their debut. ~ Matthew Garbutt
