Horse Lords live in Salford

Experience Horse Lords live on November 12th

Horse Lords will perform at The White Hotel in Salford, United Kingdom on November 12, 2026. Horse Lords are a Washington D.C.-based band known for their unique blend of post-punk, no wave, and jazz influences. Their music frequently features interlocking guitar lines, driving rhythms, and spoken-word elements, often characterized by complex polyrhythms and a deliberately angular aesthetic. Formed in 2009, the group has released several critically acclaimed albums on labels such as Northern Spy Records.

The White Hotel is a Salford venue established in 2014, quickly becoming recognized for its commitment to experimental and forward-thinking music and arts programming. Housed within a former industrial building, it occupies a distinctive architectural space that contributes to its atmosphere. The venue’s name references a similarly named 1981 conceptual art piece/performance by Chris Burden which explored themes of isolation and sensory deprivation – though the venue itself doesn’t directly replicate the artwork’s content. It has hosted a diverse range of international artists across genres including electronic music, avant-garde performance, and alternative rock, gaining a reputation for supporting emerging and established artists alike within the independent music scene.
