The Michelle Rocking Horse Band is a playful, quirky, and catchy band from Nashville, TN, with a sound they describe as “original rock, country, and R&B”-- though to me they almost sound like certain modern jam bands. Their lyrics are a bit psychedelic, sung (or talk-sung) in a high voice about a variety of topics over the roughly five minutes of “Crisis on the Shore,” in the light style of Trey Anastasio or Michael Kang. Occasionally, the funky, easy-listening melodies are accompanied by some fun cameos, from cowbell to party whistle. The musicians know how to rock out together, and they mesh well.
