The Horse Never Lies, Only People Do – Jodie Newton (2026)
ā
Release Date 25-09-2026
ā
A song for the horse that carried more than you knew.
There are days when life feels too heavy.
Divorce. Heartbreak. Fear. Exhaustion. Loneliness.
And then you go to the yard.
You ride. You breathe. The noise falls away.
And somehow, your horse reminds you who you are.
