Dead Horses, the Appleton/Milwaukee (oh let’s just say Wisconsin) folk-scene mainstays dazzle again with their new song and accompanying video, “Ain’t Got Time.” One of the first recordings to feature the new three-member configuration, the video features pensive stares and glares in a dusty attic, and a good dose of fire and smoke. After some southern-swing inspired verses paired with worn and dirtied imagery, a river of flames dances during the blistering guitar-driven bridge as the song steamrolls to the end.
As worried as we were with the departure fiddler Tim McIlree earlier this year, the band has remained strong with a steady stream of shows and now this promising new material, proving their ability to get back on the horse and deliver solid artistry to south-east Wisconsin and beyond.
