Jana Horn
“[She] creates the aural equivalent of what a novelist writes, exposing the flaws and heartbreak that reside in each of us.” – Folk Radio UK
Jana Horn is an American folk musician based in Charlottesville, Virginia. Horn is also an educator and MFA student at the University of Virginia. Her debut album, Optimism, was released in 2020. She followed up with The Window is The Dream in early 2023. A Rothko-esque color field set to music, The Window Is The Dream ventures even deeper into Horn’s inner space than her stark, acclaimed debut Optimism. The New Yorker recently described her music as: “Spectral and strangely soothing” going on to say that “Horn’s work aligns with a fraternity of the lonely that cuts across genres: traces of Young Marble Giants, Syd Barrett, and Broadcast all waft through her songs.”
