Horse Lords + Damian Dalla Torre

Horse Lords, an American band formed in Baltimore, bring their experimental rock to the ICA in London, with Damian Dalla Torre in support. The concert is co-presented by the ICA and Baba Yaga's Hut.

Horse Lords formed in Baltimore in 2010, growing out of the experimental collective Teeth Mountain. They began as a trio and later added an alto saxophonist, and their first album, Mixtape Vol. 1, appeared in 2012. The group came up through Baltimore's noise and leftfield rock scene, and its playing draws on a wider mix of influences than the rhythmic patterns typical of instrumental electric rock might suggest.

Over sixteen years of regular touring, the band has released a substantial body of studio, live and collaborative albums, alongside a split EP with fellow Baltimore group Lower Dens. For RVNG's FRKWYS series, they worked with the Berlin-based composer Arnold Dreyblatt.

The evening is co-presented by the ICA and Baba Yaga's Hut, with Damian Dalla Torre providing support. The ICA is a London venue that hosts concerts and shows, and this event places the band's music in its contemporary programme.
