Good morning. 🎶 Nothing beats kicking off the day with some relaxing tunes. These music-loving critters agree — they can’t get enough of the performances this man puts on just for them. More below!

SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT

“I Sang For Horses And They Had The Most Precious Reaction”

He only has one name — Plumes. He is sometimes referred to as Plumes Officiel. The name does matter (more on that shortly), but what he does is something pretty special. This French musician is making waves with his distinctive pink guitar and videos featuring his favorite audience: animals. While he was out singing to horses, he got a bit more appreciation than he expected. Watch the heartwarming interaction in the video below:

(A brief explanation on the importance of names. This man goes by Plumes or Plumes Officiel. Plumes or Plumes Music is a different group in the Paris area. The two are vastly different.)

What inspired Plumes to play music for animals?

Plumes says it’s because he wants “to raise awareness about abused and endangered animals and species!” Some of his videos include links to animal assistance programs. He wants to make people aware that animals are “living, sentient beings.”

When selecting music to play, Plumes tends toward light and smooth music, such as love songs. Singing to horses and other animals is rewarding for him, as the animals are always appreciative. During an interview with Cuddle Buddies, Plumes stated that after reading that cows enjoyed music, he wanted to try it for himself.

The cows gathered around him, nuzzling his guitar as he played. Cows are still his favorite animal to play for, but he has sung for too many animals to count — even lemurs!

Most animals are curious. Plumes stated that when he plays for animals, “I feel like I’m more in tune with nature and more sensitive when it comes to life as a whole.”

What a beautiful way to connect with nature and our animal friends, who clearly couldn’t love his music more! 🥰
