Biography

Jeremy Horn was born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee, and began playing the guitar at 15. A friend convinced him to use his talent with the guitar, along with his songwriting, for God. Horn began writing Christian songs and soon found himself working at Ardent Studios while attending Bible college. There, Horn was able to hone his songwriting and recording skills.[1]

Music

Independent Memphis label The Grove released Horn's first single, "First Love,"[2] along with his debut album, Atmosphere, August 7, 2007,[3] which made the Top 10 Bestselling New Releases in the Praise & Worship category on Amazon.com.[4] Mike Rimmer of Cross Rhythms Magazine compared his sound to that of Tim Hughes and Chris Tomlin.[5]
