The horse is dead, long live the horse...

"SleeperHorse combines the broken bottle rock we all know and love with the pop and disco sensibilities that are our guilty pleasures. If we can sing gruff songs about whiskey and heartbreak while making you dance uncontrollably, well then, we've done our job here."

"Lawrence’s pop-punk band, the Bubble Boys, were omnipresent in the ’90s. With songs from their debut full-length, Bitter is Better, finding regular airplay on 105.9 the Lazer and the band opening shows for the likes of Descendents and Blink-182—the trio of guitarist/vocalist Brian Gee, bassist/vocalist Dan Cook, and drummer Chris Bulgren were a blast of energy.

The band formed in 1992 and essentially broke up when Gee moved to California in 2005. The occasional reunion show has popped up, with the last one in 2013. Before Gee moved away, however, the band recorded an album with Chubby Smith, entitled Burst, which has had the occasional compilation feature but never saw a full release until the end of last month via Lawrence’s Ownlife Records." - Nick Spacek, 2022 (The Pitch)

Two long time friends from the Northeast Kansas countryside. An amalgamation of songs retrofitted from acoustic solo diddies and gritty rock 'n' roll thrashers tossed into an atom smasher and coalesced into a fuck-it-all-quit-your-job-and-run attitude as interpreted by a guitar, a drum set, and a couple sets of vocal chords.
