Tall Black Horses is a single from Jesse Malin’s upcoming double album, Sad and Beautiful World, out September 24 on Wicked Cool Records. Over his 40 year career, Malin has established himself across many genres from hardcore to americana, and Sad and Beautiful world embraces his versatility. Of Tall Black Horses, Malin says, “the song is about taking your worst fears and insecurities and owning them, conquering them, riding on through tall and big – being bold without fear and regret. Everybody gets hurt. Everybody gets their heart broken. It’s part of the journey. Ride on.” He wrote the song on an acoustic guitar, and credits producers Derek Cruz and Geoff Sanoff for, “taking it to a much wider and vivid sonic place that I’ve never been before.” New album from NYC-based alternative/Americana singer-songwriter. Sad and Beautiful World released on Wicked Cool Records is the follow-up to 2019’s Sunset Kids, Malin’s collaboration with Lucinda Williams and Tom Overby. Sad and Beautiful World marks his first double album release and is split up into two themes: One album is the Americana-leaning “Roots Rock,” the other is the more rock-focused “Radicals.” Malin wrote and recorded the albums during the pandemic while also hosting and producing a regular livestream series, The Fine Art of Self Distancing.
