Haunted Horses emerged in Seattle as a forward-thinking industrial-noise project born from the collaboration of Myke Pelly and Colin Dawson. The lineup expanded in 2021 with bassist Brian McClelland, anchoring a heavier, more bass-driven dimension to the music. The trio quickly became known for aggressive, immersive shows and a studio ethos that prioritizes texture, pacing, and raw energy.
Their discography charts a fearless pursuit of boundary-pushing soundscapes, featuring landmark releases and high-profile collaborations. The 2022 release The Worst Has Finally Happened showcased their industrial-noise aggression, cementing their reputation within the Three One G roster. 2025 brought the LP Dweller, released January 10, 2025 on Three One G, signaling a continued evolution of their sound. A notable collaboration project, Haunted Horses / Facet Split with Hex Records, expanded their reach and creative dialogue with new material and remixed tracks.
What sets Haunted Horses apart is their unwavering commitment to the live experience. Puget Sound-area audiences can catch their energy in intimate rooms and regional festivals, drawing fans who appreciate uncompromised intensity and a DIY, authentic approach to the art of noise-rock.
