OVERVIEW Tired Pony is a primarily a side project of Gary Lightbody of Snow Patrol and Peter Buck of R.E.M. However, the line up also includes Garret 'Jacknife' Lee, Iain Archer, Richard Colburn, Scott McCaughey and TroyStewart. Lightbody had long wanted to record a country-flavoured album and this was this vehicle for so doing. The supergroup unleashed its debut single, 'Dead American Writes' in July 2010. This preceeded the debut long player, 'The Place We Ran From', which saw the light of day a week later. A second single, 'Get On The Road' was released in support of the album in September of the same year. 2010 - Release of 'Dead American Writers' single [04 July] - Release of 'The Place We Ran From' album [12 July] - Release of 'Get On The Road' EP [26 September] 2013 - Release of 'The Ghost Of The Mountain' album
