BIO

         Attila Horvath as born in the Cleveland, Ohio suburb of Westlake in 1974, and grew up in a Hungarian-speaking household. Both his parents were immigrants, and he learned his ancestral language first.
         He started learning guitar when he was in junior high, but never took playing music seriously until relatively late, toward the end of his college days, when he picked up bass guitar for practical reasons. No one else that was available for his first genuine attempt at forming a band had a bass, so he bought a used rig and dove right in. The bass became his main instrument for years to come, and he performed double duty in his first band Akimbo, commanding the low frequencies as well as singing. Learning the drums came later, after buying a 50 dollar kit from a thrift store.
         Attila now lives in Athens, Ohio, where he fronts his band The Tailwinds.
