Sable Island Horses is Lennie's latest release from his most recent album, Shelter from the Storms. He has long been fascinated by Sable Island, just off the coast of Nova Scotia, where generations of approximately 500 wild horses have lived and survived without any human interaction for hundreds of years. These amazing wild horses are believed to be descended from Acadian horses taken during the expulsion of 1755. They were transported to the island by Thomas Hancock with the plan to harvest them later and put them up for sale, but were instead eventually abandoned to survive on their own on this wind-swept isolated island. Lennie and his partner Patricia Richard went to the island twice to spend time among the horses, and this song and video were the result of those trips.
