After a decade of nation wide touring The Horn Family is ready to release their first full length, self-titled album.  Their road to release began when their music caught the ears of RayLynn Records founders and Texas Rangers co-owners, Bob and Janice Simpson, who were immediately impressed with The Horn Family's talent for performing and sharing the gospel. After joining forces with RayLynn Records in early 2013, the Horns immediately began writing for their first album. Bringing their own unique writing perspective to every song, The Horn Family creates a unique blend of experiences and style that celebrate their faith through the country gospel genre.  

The Horn Family was recorded in Nashville, Tenn. and produced by prolific country artist and renowned songwriter Mark Collie whose works have been recorded by artists such as Garth Brooks, Tim McGraw, George Jones, and Alabama.

RayLynn Records is pleased to announce the signing of their second artist, The Horn Family. Blending country with contemporary gospel – and offering occasional traditional gospel moments, The Horn Family have spent the past decade traveling the Southeast in a 15-passenger van, sometimes playing over 100 impassioned and energy-fueled live concerts per year. 

With Joel singing lead and playing piano, Jamie on drums and family member Scott Brown on bass, the Horns literally grew up on stage, performing every local benefit, church concert and revival within a 10-mile radius of Whitewood. With adulthood came an expansion of the band into its current formation as The Horn Family in 2000, when Joel and Jamie's wives – Tina and Tracy, respectively – came on board to offer their vocals and Sidney Helton joined as lead guitarist. 

The Horn Family is currently working on its first album for RayLynn Records. The yet-to-be-titled project is being written and recorded in Nashville and produced by prolific country artist and songwriter Mark Collie. Among the titles slated for the record are upbeat, celebratory songs “I’ve Got It” and “He Got Up” as well as ballads “He Built Me Strong” and “Rise Above the Fall.”

Micah Kandros has shot everyone from Alan Jackson to Jaci Velasquez to Mandisa and did a fabulous job with Joel, Tina, Jamie and Tracy from The Horn Family. They had a very busy but fun day in the legendary Marathon Motorworks building and we've got the photos to prove it. 

The Horn Family have been hard at work in Nashville's famous Sony Studio writing with Leigh Reynolds and Producer Mark Collie. Collie has written songs for Alabama, George Jones, Tim McGraw, Aaron Tippin and Garth Brooks among others. Their first studio project is due out this summer.
