London-via-Paris newcomers Spanish Horses have unveiled “City I Believe,” the final preview of their debut EP, Small Notions, set for release on 27th November via So Young Records. The track arrives with an accompanying visualiser and follows previous singles “Some People” and “Hey Man (Hey Man!)”.

Channelling Americana influences through a slacker-rock lens, “City I Believe” fuses propulsive drums with hefty harmonica bursts, capturing the raw, basement-venue energy of the band’s recent live shows. The multinational quintet, comprising members of British, French, Cambodian, and Lebanese descent, formed in Paris before relocating to London.

Reflecting on the track’s origins and the rapid writing process behind the EP, frontman Tom Onezime shared:

‘City I Believe’ is the first song we wrote for the EP after a long break. We thought let’s get loud to clear off all the cobwebs. We then ended up with this song that we called ‘track 2’ for 5 months.

Small Notions was written to manifest change in our lives, as a means to jump forward and break out. The songs were written shortly before the studio sessions, creating an urgency to the sound and a fragility that we really value. Small Notions is a product of ambition, sincerity and simplicity that we hope will reach the entire world

Following recent festival appearances at End of the Road, Swn, and Left of the Dial, as well as tour dates supporting Bleech 9:3, Spanish Horses will perform at The Great Escape’s First Fifty showcase at London’s Shacklewell Arms on 12th November.
