Lyrics from A Thousand Lashes

The City and Horses are an indie-pop band from New York City led by singer/songwriter Marc Cantone. The band keeps a low profile, Cantone has revealed that he is the producer of a children's TV show, but has not shared much more info about himself. The band plays a goofy take on indie-pop, writing sometimes tender, sometimes rocking songs that never take themselves too seriously. The City and Horses released their debut album I Don't Want To Dream in 2009. “Little Finland,” a song from the album, was used in the music-themed indie film Paper Hearts, starring Michael Cera. The band released their sophomore album We Will Never Be Discovered in 2011 on Brooklyn's Paper Gardens Records.
