Songwriters on Process

Songwriters on Process
Jacob Slater of Wunderhorse
Wunderhorse is why you should always get to the show early to see the support act.
I was introduced to Jacob Slater's band when I saw them open for Fontaines D.C. (here's my podcast with Grian Chatten of Fontaines) at a small club in Pittsburgh in 2022. I had never heard of Wunderhorse, but they won everyone, including me, over in the first thirty seconds with their volume and their energy. I've been a huge fan of Slater and his band ever since. And as you'll hear, we share a strong affinity for the amazing writer Breece D'J Pancake.
Wunderhorse's fantastic album Midas is out now.
