Horse Lords live in Buffalo

Experience Horse Lords live on July 16th

Horse Lords will be performing at Torn Space Theatre in Buffalo, New York on July 16, 2026. Horse Lords is a Washington D.C.-based band known for their unique approach to post-punk and experimental rock. Their music frequently incorporates polyrhythms, angular guitar work, and spoken-word elements, often drawing comparisons to bands like Television and early Talking Heads, though with a distinctly modern and abstract sensibility. They have been active since 2009, releasing albums on labels such as Northern Spy Records and consistently touring nationally and internationally.

Torn Space Theatre is an artist-run performance venue established in Buffalo in 1986. Originally focused on avant-garde theatre and dance, it has evolved to host a diverse range of experimental music performances, visual art exhibitions, and interdisciplinary projects. The space is characterized by its intimate setting and commitment to supporting independent artists working outside mainstream channels. It’s known for prioritizing sound quality within its relatively small capacity and fostering a community around challenging artistic expression. The theatre operates as a non-profit organization dedicated to providing affordable space for artists to develop and present their work.
