Wunderhorse is the alias of British musician Jacob Slater, who previously fronted London-based band The Dead Pretties and will soon be portraying Sex Pistols drummer, Paul Cook, in a biopic series directed by Danny Boyle. The singer-songwriter takes inspiration from Tom Waits, Adrianne Lenker, and Fontaines D.C.
The first debut single ‘Teal’ is a mesmerising slice of arthouse indie-rock and a glimpse at what he’s got in store for the future. Speaking on the solo song, the singer explains that the track was about a person that was very close to him who went through a rough patch in the past. A rare, raw and assured talent, ‘Teal’ is a fever-dream of a number, tumbling downhill with the brakes off.
I think we live in an age where authenticity and raw, naked honesty has become quite a rare thing.” – Jacob Slater
