David Broza just released the single “I’ll Never Ride a Horse Again” from his new album EN CASA LIMÓN, his first guitar-focused instrumental recording, produced by Javier Limón. The album was recorded at the Casa Limón Studios in Madrid, considered “a ‘magical place’ where some of the world’s greatest guitarists, including Paco de Lucia and Tomatito, recorded their albums.”
Regarding the quirky title, Broza explains via email that while working on the song at Casa Limón Studios, he realized he had not named it. “My inspiration for this composition was a cross between a jazzy Spanish guitar tune with the gypsy Django Reinhardt feel, and some Stephane Grappelli and Scott Joplin-style swing all mixed up. But it also had some more rugged essence to it, and someone in the studio said that it sounded like a western without horses. So I answered, “I’ll never ride a horse again,” […] As I was answering the engineer, I realized that this will be the name of this tune
