Equus are a gathering of four musicians of very diverse musical and cultural backgrounds. Their debut album Dakshin Khun (EM 2013) focuses on the traditional music of Mongolia. The second release from Equus, 'Tailwind Home' represents a more diverse fusion of musical styles, with original compositions, as well as Traditional Mongolian and Turkish music in a contemporary setting. Combining elements of Mongolian folk song, throat singing, Mediterranean strings, with shades of contemporary fusion and jazz and blues. World renowned Mongolian throat singer Bukh (Voice, Morin Khuur) is joined by the musicians John Robinson (Oud, Turkish Baglama) and Peter Kennard (Percussion), as well as Double bass extraordinaire Bertie McMahon. This music is about meetings, of people and traditions, and of musics. Equus is a bold, imaginative music project that succeeds in the formation of an entirely new sound.
