New Release
Horses aren't meant to be Broken
“Horses Aren’t Meant to Be Broken” tells the true story of Cheyenne, a horse grieving the loss of a beloved companion and longing to be free once again. Through her story, the song explores themes of loss, healing, authenticity, and the universal desire to live as one’s true self. It is a reminder that neither horses nor people are meant to be broken, but to be free.”
