Lachlan Horne > Bio

“Riffs and solos pour from Lachlan's fingers with an ease that should make the competition weep …  a name to catch for true rockers everywhere.” Musician

"Horne can play. Oh yes he really can play.” Powerplay

Lachlan first picked up the guitar at the age of fourteen. Primarily self taught though he has studied under distinguished guitarists such as Alan Limbrick, John Etheridge and Shaun Baxter when he attended The Guitar Institute in London. After a few years of diligent music study and a lifestyle centred around intensive guitar practice he established himself as a working musician and was performing in numerous successful bands both in the UK and Australia where he was a member of the successful rock band Club Crunch. 

He has played sessions for a variety of music and media projects and his music has been used for computer games, radio commercials and even as a theme on a rollercoaster. Having spent most of his music career as a side man and session musician he stepped out of the shadows in 2004 by releasing his own instrumental rock album entitled The Time Has Come. This album, and his current release The Horne Supremacy, have both served to establish his growing reputation as a guitarist of immense talent.

He has forged his own guitar playing style by drawing influence from many of the guitar greats most particularly Jimi Hendrix, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Paul Gilbert and Jeff Beck but it is his own individual song writing and playing skills that have won him the greatest approval.    

Lachlan currently spends most of his time writing, recording and producing is own material. His second album The Horne Supremacy, which also highlights his vocal talents, is available as a download only release.

When not writing and performing he is also manages a hectic teaching schedule. He has earned himself an enviable reputation as a leading exponent of contemporary rock guitar with a permanently full roster of students and a long waiting list.
