I'm Jon Horne, an oiled folk/pop hit machine operating out of Edinburgh's fashionable Portobello. 20% of the Anchor Line Revue (country soul with a well-fired roll) rocking the gin palaces of the capital alongside the estimable @siasa.

My latest album is here https://jonhorne.bandcamp.com/album/positively-forth-street

If you like the words and hate the tunes, the best of my fiction is in "My Swimming Days (and 12 other stories)" which can be ordered from your local bookshop.

No Reform/IFP/AfD/RN/MAGA etc. because politics and music do mix.

No AI because I'm old and haven't got a ****ing clue.

No ukulele because I may be old but I still have ears.

I appreciate you so much, Jon! Have a super FAWM!

Thanks Elaine! Frustrated right now - 1st song written and I've got a stinking cold and can't sing it... Hope you're having better luck. Creativity in hard times for your people. All the best to you.

Hey Jon! We were paired for RandomCollab so I was wondering how you wanted to go about it. Either you can make the music first, or I can make the lyrics OR lyrics/tune (what I usually do) first and you match the backing track to my acapella vocal. I don't have pro studio equipment, so if I record my vocals to a backing track you make first, I can't promise it'll sound the best, so maybe you'd want to do it the other way around. But yeah, let me know your thoughts. Excited to work with you! :)

@hornesgiftshop 1d

Hi Ally, my preference is, you send me lyrics and I'll send you a finished article from which you can delete my vocal and add yours. But I'm happy if you want to try acapella. I'll do a track and you can tidy up the vocal after. Better than me doing music first, I think.

@ally_nicole 1d

Okay I can write the lyrics and do the acapella recording then! Was there any specific subject or style you were looking for? I noticed that you are largely folk-pop or country-soul in your music, so I can try to make something that emulates those styles.

@hornesgiftshop 1d

Hi Ally, no need to accommodate me. I'm a better songwriter than I am a musician, so you won't be getting any jazz/metal solos - but be yourself lyrically and musically, I'll fit in.

Ok lol sounds good then! I should be able to get it done by this weekend if all else fails. Either way, I'll let you know :)
