Wild Horses Release New Album 'The In Between'

10-04-2026

(Atlantic) Minnesota trio Wild Horses - comprised of married couple Jed LaPlant [vocals, guitar] and Ariana LaPlant [vocals, fiddle, keys], joined by longtime friend Landon Pahl [bass] - have released their second full length album, titled The In Between, out now via Outlaw Foundry/Atlantic Outpost. Listen here.

Recorded in Montana, Nashville, and Minnesota, The In Between showcases the group's signature hybrid of folk, Americana, country, and rock. All nine songs were written by Jed and Ariana, with Jed also producing most of the album himself, alongside co-production from Joe Becker (Sam Barber, Waylon Wyatt) on a handful of tracks and Ariana on "Canyon Song." In addition to "Take It As It Comes," the collection also features the previously released "Sunrise on the Absaroke" which includes the lyric "...livin' in the in between..." that inspired the album's title.

About the new album, Wild Horses said, "We've been living in the 'in between' since we first set off to make this whole thing work, but, since the excitement of launching the band and the first record, it's really set in. We built a van to live in, started touring out of it, bought and built out a tour bus, self-funded a record, built a home and tore it down a few years later here as we go back to living in the dirt - waiting on the next move. The 'in between' is living between the almost and not quite yet whether it be the walls and roof you hope to keep the rain out or the life that you want to build for yourself and your loved ones someday. It's all the drifters wandering along the seemingly endless American highway, looking for a place to land or someone to call home. It's the days spent on the side of the road wondering how you're gonna make the next gig just as much as it's the celebration that comes from a late night bite after a great gig. This project creates a picture of what life has been like for us these last few years and what it's like for many others alongside us, walking the same roads in different ways. That's not to say there's some arrival waiting with the next one, but, for now, here we live in the 'in between' pushing on with all we've got in us."

Next up, Wild Horses will support Trampled By Turtles on a run of dates later this month before returning to the road, opening for Sam Barber and Josiah and the Bonnevilles.
