Pony Boy’s “Greatest Unknown” MP3 Now Available!
“Sultry, smoky and soulful vocals … and songs that explore the myth of the Old West and heartache make for an all-original junkyard country meets southern gothic soul sound.”
~ Lucky Magazine
“Her blend of country, blues, and rock might just make her the next big crossover artist…” ~ VICE

Pony Boy is Marchelle Bradanini, a sultry songwriter with seductive vocals who isn’t afraid to explore her dark side. With twangy guitars and smoky melodies, her music calls to mind the desolate landscapes of the old west, littered with danger and mystery. Having won over audiences and critics alike last year with her single “Not In This Town,” Pony Boy returns with a new single, “Greatest Unknown.”
Like Pony Boy’s previous releases, “Greatest Unknown” is simultaneously beautiful and eerie, sounding as though it belongs on a Twin Peaks soundtrack. While booming percussion keeps a steady pace beneath buzzing electric guitar lines, Bradanini’s voice twists and turns, alternating between a croon and a whisper.
Having performed alongside Saddle Creek band The Mynabirds and at last year’s New Yorker Festival, Pony Boy has a string of live dates lined up for March and April, supporting Melbourne’s Clairy Browne & The Bangin’ Rackettes. Playing with a rotating cast of talented instrumentalists, she’ll be joined by drummer Michael Iveson (Gotye), guitarist David Steele (John Prine, Steve Earle), and bassist Jonathan Price (The Henry Clay People.)
Stay tuned for more from Pony Boy coming soon, including a video for her new single!
