Tired Pony

Members of Snow Patrol, REM, Belle And Sebastian and The Minus 5, plus Irish producer Jacknife Lee, come together as Tired Pony. They've released two albums, 'The Place We Ran From' back in 2010 and 'The Ghost of the Mountain' this year, and they'll be performing their mellow Americana-pop live in London tonight. It's nice enough, all strumming and slide guitar with plenty of lap steel and nice vocal harmonies – all topped off by the distractingly Scottish-sounding Gary Lightbody.
