The Young Equestrians

About Me

When the Lindbergh Baby was kidnapped, the grief nearly killed Charles. Only the sounds of airplane engines put him to sleep.

We all live in Brooklyn, NY but we come from all kinds of different places. Our music is mostly improvisations based on the things that are important to us. Things like dying young, dying rich, and dying in the jump seat of a crashing plane.
We recorded an album in the winter of 2006-2007 in a cold and rickety, windowy and noisy room between the Manhattan Bridge and the BQE. With all that stuff moving around us, we had to sit very still to recordBeware of the Hurry Sickness.


BUY IT at our WEBSITE or by clicking the MOVING IMAGE BELOW. Don't let Myspace, sketch you out either. We wouldn't do you any harm, we like you.


Each copy of this album comes, at the moment, in a cover that was silk-screened, cut, folded, and sewn by hand. Honest American hands.
