Hold Your Horse Is are a three piece UK post-hardcore rock band. The band, which consists of Robin Pearson on guitar and vocals, James Penny on bass and Chris Rouse on drums, self-released several EPs before signing to Big Scary Monsters Recording Company last year. They have since then released a six track EP, 'Rammin', and hope to put out their debut album by the end of the year. The group has toured widely since forming in 2008, and these photographs were taken at a gig in their native Hampshire earlier this year
