About Me

horse + rider pass, solo singer-songwriter dylan morgan's recording moniker, is a blend of folk, country, indie/alt rock, and all of the music he listened to in high school. dylan morgan began recording under the name horse + rider pass, in 2003, after playing with local bands in the bakersfield area. in 2003 the album, east/west, was recorded and handed out at shows for free to spread the lofi gospel. after many more years and recordings, horse + rider, now located on the outskirts of vegas, are once again set to get started, writing, recording and playing shows. the "band" consists of dylan and a team of production ghosts, with the majority of the parts all played, mixed, and written by the one himself. horse + rider pass, the name comes from one of the last lines in the book 'all the pretty horses' by cormac mccarthy, one of dylan's favorite books. (in truth the first name he wanted to use was 'pale horse + rider' but that was already taken by a swell band from back east.)
