Biography
Combining brilliant music with interactive comedy, The Horne Section is unlike any other entertainment package. Award-winning comedian Alex Horne has gathered five of the most renowned jazz musicians in the country to create something fresh and funny.
Its jazz-infused comedy, live and loud, part improvised, part honed, part performance, part party. The show is extremely versatile. Clients could opt for a straight half-hour show of comedy and music for after a meal or a longer set, tailored to their evening.
Alex and the band can create songs about a particular event or involve particular individuals in a charming but hilarious way.
Alternatively, the band can provide fantastic live music throughout the evening; gentle jazz earlier and more upbeat later, with Alex acting more as a genial MC. Or The Horne Section can provide a full bill of comedy, with other great comedians combining with the musicians in new and exciting ways.
The Horne Section can arrive in all shapes and sizes to suit your event – whether it be as few as two musicians or the full set of five you are guaranteed an unforgettable evening.
