7Horse Release New Album 'Superfecta'  Image

The new full-length from 7Horse entitled Superfecta is out today. This is the swamp rock duo's fourth studio album and the follow up to 2016's Livin' in a Bitch of a World. 7Horse have also just wrapped up a cross-country tour and will soon be announcing new dates for 2019.

The band recently released a new single 'VictorioUS' that premiered over at Pure Grain Audio. The song has a big chorus with an anthemic, stadium rock feel to it: "I was out walking the dog and the melody popped into my head. I sent it to Joie and he put it on guitar. He came up with a bridge that reminds me of KISS. Perfect. " Phil Leavitt

7Horse formed in 2011 and is comprised of longtime friends and musical partners Phil Leavitt and Joie Calio who first played together in the platinum alternative rock band dada. Leavitt talks about the experience: "We made some great music in dada and it took us all over the world (notching a hit song like 'Dizz Knee Land' will do that for you). But we knew it was time for something new. A new approach, more raw, more primal. It can be hard to start over and leave the past behind. But there's something deeply satisfying about breaking free from expectations and really testing yourself. It makes you feel alive."


Across their four full length LP's, 7Horse has amassed over 13.5+ million streams on Spotify and has been featured across TV shows (Amazon's The Grand Tour, the NFL Playoffs on Fox), video games including Far Cry 5 and most notably, Martin Scorcese's Oscar winning film, The Wolf of Wall Street, which showcases the band's left-of-center hit 'Meth Lab Zoso Sticker' which has garnered nearly 1.7 million YouTube plays.


7Horse has blazed their own trail across three well-reviewed albums: Let the 7Horse Run (2011), Songs for a Voodoo Wedding (2014) and Livin in a Bitch of a World (2016). For previous albums, the band traded ideas and riffs online, but decided to shake it up for Superfecta with several months of pre-production and writing together in person. The result is an expansive, daring take on 7Horse's blues-rock sound.


For Leavitt and Calio, 7Horse marks the incredible evolution of a strong musical partnership. "We've always been unified in thought," says Calio. "We agree on almost everything. And we know that even as we expand our band, the two of us will always be the foundation."
