Old Calf- Borrow a Horse
Old Calf formed as a duo in the small, but musically vibrant town of Charlottesville, VA by Ned Oldham (The Anomoanon, Palace Music) and accordionist Marty Metcalfe, slowly accruing members on route to recording their debut album. Deeply influenced by traditional American music, and touching on ground most groups do not know exist, Borrow a Horse is rich with melody and instrumentation, it's simple songs rooted in Folk and Bluegrass, and presented in a swirl of Psychedelia. It's an album forged in history, and despite existing in the present, it's sound is timeless.
