London’s Kieran Leonard & The Horses mixes Nirvana and Ryan Adams on the first single from forthcoming second album, ‘Good Luck, Everybody’.

Kieran Leonard is a British singer-songwriter and musician of Irish descent, who performs as a solo artist and with his four piece band known as ‘The Horses’.

He is particularly known for his poetic songwriting and compelling live performances. There is a clear social and political awareness in his writing and an abundance of literary and cultural references, as exemplified by his singles ‘Jerusalem’ and ‘Harold Pinter is Dead’. He has had critical comparisons to Bob Dylan, Kurt Cobain and Leonard Cohen, whom he cites as influences. It comes accompanied by this satirical clip, poking fun at the conventions and traditions of music videos.
