The Horn

The Police, Bon Jovi, The Stranglers - a key thing that these three bands have in common is that they have or previously had one band member older than the majority, although this rarely exceeded a decade. Considering the success of these bands and the examples of many more who are out there, no one could argue that the significant age difference hampered their ability to connect with audiences, create truly compelling music and leave their mark on the history of music. One band who is taking this trope to a whole new level in the most rock’n’roll way possible is The Horn.
 The pillar of this five-piece outfit is Nick True, a songwriter and former bassist of Friends Of Gavin (an 80s rock band who toured with REM and left behind the series of unfinished work) who recruited the vocalist and guitarist Jonny Taylor, alongside Danny Monk (multi- instrumental), Ed Cox (keyboards) and Alex Moorse (drums), to finally release those untold stories from decades earlier. 
 First up, we have ‘Passion’ mixed by Rich Turvey (Blossoms, Courteeners, The Coral), a kinetic indie-rock triumph that reflects the confident and cool nature of this time-travelling band. It’s already got the attention of press across the UK and has received a rapturous response from crowds when performed live. 
 Passion is a fitting entrance for a band set to cause quite a stir over the coming months.
