Written by Nice Horse and award winning songwriter Jason Blaine, “Cowgirl” is a fun, lighthearted bop about living the cowgirl state of mind. The lyrics say it best, “It ain’t about what you wear, it ain’t about what you drive. No matter where you’re from, when it’s said and done, Cowgirl is a state of mind.”
To keep things interesting during Isolation, Nice Horse have been having Wine at 9 via Facebook live every Monday morning at 9am MST, playing music and chatting with fans! Comprised of Brandi Sidoryk (vocals, bass), Katie Rox (vocals, banjo, acoustic guitar), Krista Wodelet (vocals, drums), Tara McLeod (electric guitar), Nice Horse is the result of four bold women joining forces to create all-girl powerhouse band.
Winners of the CMT Fresh Face Feature Artist and making into the top 3 finalists for Alberta’s prestigious project WILD, the ladies of Nice Horse have shown no hints of slowing down. They’ve performed at such big-time country music festivals as Boots and Hearts, Big Valley Jamboree and Dauphin’s CountryFest, as well as showcasing during other high-profile events such as Roger’s Hometown Hockey, Nashville’s AmericanaFest, JUNO Fest, and during the Canadian Country Music Association’s Country Music Week, and have opened for legendary artists such as Tom Cochrane and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
ABOUT NICE HORSE
Nice Horse is what happens when four bold, brilliant and badass women get together to raise a little hell—and play a little music at the same time. This Alberta-based band is out to turn the tables on the country music world and show the guys that they can rock—and party—just as hard. Sure, there are plenty of strong female country artists in Daisy Dukes out there, but try to name another self-contained unit that plays their own instruments and writes songs as potent as “Jim, Jack, Johnnie & Jose,” the band’s roof-raising single “Pony Up”, and the new feminist anthem “Mansplainin’”.
There’s plenty of more proof on Nice Horse’s aptly titled full-length debut album, There Goes The Neighborhood (emphasis on the neigh!), produced by Jeff Dalziel (Washboard Union, Brett Kissel), along with the legendary Bob Rock (Metallica, Motley Crue) on a couple of tracks. The band’s first major tour was as direct support for Canadian icon Tom Cochrane, and they’ve since opened for other industry heavyweights including Gord Bamford and Jess Moskaluke. Additional touring highlights include major festivals such as Big Valley Jamboree, the Calgary Stampede, and Boots & Hearts – always showcasing their signature high-energy live show.
The bottom line? If you’re looking for a good time, then Nice Horse is more than willing to take you along for the ride!
