Blue Horse is the debut album by the Be Good Tanyas.[4][5] It was released in 2000 in Canada, and in 2001 in the U.S.
The album was produced by Garth Futcher, and was recorded in a Vancouver-area wooden shack.[3] The last verse of "The Littlest Birds" references Syd Barrett's song "Jugband Blues", from the Pink Floyd album A Saucerful of Secrets.[citation needed]
Exclaim! deemed the album "spooky, drowsy gothic folk performed by three western women with voices like junkie angels."[6] The Independent wrote: "A low-key album made on an impossibly low budget, Blue Horse is one of the most beguiling debuts to be heard this year."[7]
