We are very, very happy to officially welcome @the We are very, very happy to officially welcome @thesilversardines to the Baby Horse Family, and announce the release of their first single, Maureen, out everywhere Friday December 1st!

“Though I love this song,” said frontman and principal songwriter Malte Zumbansen, it is really, for him, “a failed exercise...” 

He explains: 

“Having become enamoured with folk music a few years ago, but confused by the way that contemporary folk often seemed to be something completely based in nostalgia, I started writing this song. I wanted to ask: why are we still singing about the same things, and using the same imagery, that folks 50 years ago were using, when our lived reality is a completely different one? 
In the end, Maureen became a folk song like most others, which talks about love, landscapes and lonesomeness. It’s safe to say that I failed, and I’m so glad it did.”

Maureen was recorded live off the floor in the early summer of 2023 by @rollsofamericana at @sudouestrecordingservice 

The Silver Sardines are:

Malte Zumbansen, songwriter and acoustic guitar.
Antoine LaRoche, harmonies and electric guitar.
Nelson DuChastel, keys.
Hannah Blair, violin, viola, and harmonies.

Sud-Ouest Recording Service
Talkin’ Monitors—our control room is equipped Talkin’ Monitors—our control room is equipped with a pair of ProAc Studio 100s and a pair of Avantone Mix Cubes. The ProAc’s are our main reference, giving us a clear detailed picture of the full frequency range of the mix, while the Avantones, with their limited range of response, help us hone in on the mids of our mixes. The idea here is that most people don’t listen to music on high end speakers all the time, and we want to get a sense of what your music will sound like on laptop speakers, car speakers, iPhones, soundbars, etc—and the Avantones are there for that. Not to mention how fun it is to listen to old recordings on them, they take you right back to another time and place!

We’ve got some openings in October and November, so please hit us up if you’d like to come work with us!
What an epic session with @worstcasemtl last weeke What an epic session with @worstcasemtl last weekend. These guys sure can play—8 songs in two days, that might be a new record. Thanks for the good vibes and great music guys!
