Music to my Horse’s Ear
I came across a website today with some surprisingly addictive music on it. I don’t consider myself a “fan” of country music at all really, but for some reason the music of artist Mary Ann Kennedy made me laugh and want to jump in the saddle all at the same time.
Grammy nominated hit songwriter from Nashville, TN., Mary Ann Kennedy, creates music that celebrates the horse. A dedicated Parelli Natural Horsemanship student herself, Mary Ann seems to express what we all feel in our hearts for our beloved horses and the life we all live with them. Through melody, rhythm and humor in song, this is music that we horse lovers can listen and ride to.
It was interesting to find out that the artist is also a Parelli follower, with many of her songs made specifically for the Parelli program. Horsenality being one of the most recognizable Parelli ones to me (I haven’t really followed the program, but on occasion I receive articles and readings from my instructor who is a dedicated follower of Parelli – I’ve discovered that I have 2 left brained ponies and one right brained one). Horses in Heaven was sort of a neat song for me, made my think of one of my childhood ponies that I lost last summer unexpectedly, he had been with me since I was 10 years old. You can see a photo tribute to my beloved, Oopsie Daisy by clicking HERE. On the lighter side of things I thought Barn Cat was pretty humorous, there are some other great ones on her website too. I thought some of the songs might be great to perform to with my horses. Anyway, enjoy!
