About Whitehorse Glam and sleaze, desert grit and subway rats, scum-bags and fakers, hot messes and cold shoulders: welcome to the world of Whitehorse, a rock n' roll duo from Toronto.
Whitehorse's brazen sonic breadth encompasses psychedelic surf, arid border rock, lo-fi ingenuity and icy 80's sparseness. Luke Doucet's Gretsch White Falcon and impeccable tone, combined with Melissa McClelland's blazing vocals and badass P- Bass playing, have made the duo's sound is unmistakably, inventively 'Whitehorse.' The duo's songwriting is distinguished by its cinematic fiction, full of flawed characters, foiled plans and anti-fairytales that transform real life into sleek, stylized collages of neo-noir drama and high-gloss.

Dare to Dream Look at her She’s everything Causes one to make a scene What is it you have me do?
Boys Like You they live with their mothers, live with their mothers, live with their mothers Boys Like You they live with their mothers forever and ever and ever and ever
Give me something to believe in Give me something I can aspire to Just a clue as to what it might take What kind of clothes What kind of car
I got money, not afraid to spend it I got a girl, not afraid to end it I got moves that I stole from JT back in the day when I had game
Dare to Dream Look at her She’s everything Causes one to make a scene What is it you have me do?
Boys Like You they live with their mothers, live with their mothers, live with their mothers Boys Like You they live with their mothers forever and ever and ever and ever Boys Like You they live with their mothers, live with their mothers, live with their mothers Boys Like You they live with their mothers forever and ever and ever and ever
All I wanted was to be a handsome drunk sad bastard All I wanted was to make the top 5 All I wanted was to have you show me a little thigh All I wanted was to think about your pretty face
Dare to Dream Look at her She’s everything Causes one to make a scene What is it you have me do?
Boys Like You they live with their mothers, live with their mothers, live with their mothers Boys Like You they live with their mothers forever and ever and ever and ever Boys Like You they live with their mothers, live with their mothers, live with their mothers Boys Like You they live with their mothers forever and ever and ever and ever
