Iain Hornal - Return To The Magic Kingdom (2025) [Hi-Res]

British singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Iain Hornal has performed at Wembley Stadium, the Grammy Awards, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and every venue mentioned in the chorus of Wings’ ‘Rock Show’. But unless you’re one of the lucky superfans that discovered his two self-released solo albums, you’ve probably never heard of him.

As an in-demand session musician Hornal has had the great fortune to work with some of the biggest artists of all time. He is a long-standing touring member of both art-pop giants 10cc and Jeff Lynne's ELO. He has toured with Yes (playing and singing the parts of the late Chris Squire), Take That, Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Paul Young.

Between extended periods of life on the road, Hornal flexes his creative muscles in the studio. The songs of his other band Big Horizon (featuring four other members of Jeff Lynne’s ELO) are mostly stories and character studies set to feel-good chord changes, inspired by Steely Dan and The Doobie Brothers.
