Formed in 2004, Last Charge of the Light Horse became a channel for New York based songwriter Jean-Paul Vest to sonically explore the ups and downs of everyday life. Now with four albums, one EP, spots on multiple “best of” lists and heavy rotation on college radio (including #1 peaks on various charts) under their belts, Last Charge of the Light Horse return with their newest album Race To The Sound.

Race To The Sound is very distinct. I am unable to classify this under any one genre, but trust me when I say this highly impactful music by top class musicians with a seemingly natural ability to craft songs that grab your attention, keep you engaged, and leave you on the edge of your seat wondering what’s about to happen next.

Clocking in at 10 songs and 43 minutes of sonic delight, Last Charge of the Light Horse takes us on an aural journey through infectious melodies, well thought out instrumentation, experimental arrangements including a healthy infusion of jazz elements, and some really sweet sounding guitar work which keeps us anchored in the rock genre while the band bends, stretches and molds frequencies into a barrage of unpredictable yet very stimulating sounds.

I am unable to choose a favorite song as each one contains something special that will pique your attention. Upon repeat listens, you will find yourself noticing things you did not notice the first listen through. This gives the album more life and much more potency.

Race To The Sound is now available.
