Blues/rock powerhouse 7HORSE, comprised of longtime musical partners Phil Leavitt and Joie Calio, will perform their first live show in over two years at the famed Roxy Theatre in West Hollywood. This ambitious show will kick off the release of their latest album “The Last Resort,” bringing it to life via video representations of the album art and concepts. This show, which will include special guests, will also celebrate the tenth anniversary of 7Horse. Come listen to this love letter to the longevity of Leavittand Calio’s partnership that 7Horse will play in gratitude to theirfans. “LA has been the home base for our music for three decades,” Leavitt said. “The Roxy has special significance as it’s where things really got started for us. We’re thrilled to be playing our album release show at this legendary venue that’s like home to us.”

The band will drop its next single, “Hey Vámonos!” on August 19, with the video to follow on September 1st. They’ll follow that with the single, “Try to Forget It” on September 30, the video on October 13. The full album “The Last Resort” arrives on show day, November 4.
7Horse has such a unique sound—described by a fan as “Post-punk dystopian blues”—because Leavitt and Calio have been playing together for 30 years, first as original members of the alt/rock trio Dada. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the release of Dada’s debut album, “Puzzle” (1992 IRS Records) which spawned the hit single and MTV video “Dizz Knee Land.” 7Horse further cemented its reputation when Martin Scorsese featured their song “Meth Lab Zoso Sticker” in The Wolf of Wall Street. Over the years, Leavitt and Calio have rubbed shoulders with numerous musical legends. Amongst their many collaborations, they have toured with Sting, recorded with Ringo Starr, and worked with other musical household names on the production side.
About 7Horse:
Despite 7Horse’s uncanny ability to synthesize influences as diverse as 60s – 70s monsters The Rolling Stones and The Doors, seminal bluesmen Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, and Johnny Winter, and proto-art rockers Lou Reed and David Bowie, the band keeps one foot firmly rooted in the Blues. Living at the nexus of cosmic country and down-and dirty blues, 7Horse has consistently sought to create new musical forms and sonic pathways. “This is all about riffs and groove,” Leavitt says about the band’s quest to tap intorock and roll’s rich and varied past. “It’s about laying something down that’s so good you want to hear it forever.” Calio put it this way: “When 7Horse happened, it was like throwing gasoline on a fire.”
