Jana Horn is an American songwriter whose work traces the quiet edges of experience with rare precision. On her self-titled third album (out in January 2026 via No Quarter), recorded at Sonic Ranch in the West Texas desert, she sharpens her minimalist language to its most elemental form dry air, open space, spoken-sung lines that land like observations overheard in a dream.
Working as a trio with bassist Jade Guterman and drummer Adam Jones, Horn creates a friction between her stark delivery and the band's melodic pull, while clarinetist/flutist Adelyn Strei and pianist Miles Hewitt add ghost-tones and grounding figures. The music evokes early Cat Power or the sparse poetics of Loren Connors but ultimately feels entirely its own: distilled, searching, quietly intense.
Written during a disorienting first year in New York, the album captures a period of upheaval and re-formation. Songs emerge like field notes from a life in motion city fragments, desert clarity, letters between friends, glimpses of renewal. What remains is a voice that cuts through the noise by refusing it, shaping a world from silence, detail, and the unguarded moment.
Jana Horn is a singing magic eye picture somewhere between the scratchy emotional static of early Cat Power and itchy Talk Talk Spirit of Eden jazz. Unfocus and see MOJO
The Texan songwriter paints in every shade of a sigh on this richly despondent return, where the slightest touches of piano and woodwind colour her weary disappointment the Guardian
