Billy Nomates’ third album, Metalhorse, follows 2023’s CACTI and her 2020 debut. Centered on the metaphor of a dilapidated funfair symbolizing life’s chaos, it blends blues, folk, and piano-driven sounds, moving her punk style toward a more pastoral feel.
Her first studio-recorded album with a full band—including Mandy Clarke, Liam Chapman, and a guest spot from Hugh Cornwell—Metalhorse balances themes of loss, insecurity, and resilience amid global turmoil. It urges listeners to find joy amid uncertainty, celebrating small moments of happiness despite life’s risks and challenges.
