Trevor Charles Horn, CBEBorn: 15 July 1949
English music producer, songwriter, musician, and singer. He's widely credited as "The Man Who Invented the Eighties"—a title that speaks to how deeply his work shaped pop music during that decade.
Horn's production credits read like a who's who of successful acts across the UK and internationally. He won a Grammy for producing Seal's "Kiss from a Rose," one of his most recognizable achievements. As a performer, he's had his own chart success with The Buggles, Yes, and Art of Noise, proving he could deliver results both behind the console and in front of the microphone.
Beyond production work, Horn built a significant business portfolio. He owns stakes in ZTT Records, Sarm Studios, and the publishing company Perfect Songs—all three now operating under the umbrella organization SPZ. In 2010, the British Academy recognized his career-long impact by awarding him the Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music.
