Known for his distinctive falsetto vocal style, Horace Hinds aka Horace Andy aka Sleepy sang on many classic productions for reggae producers like Coxsone Dodd, Phil Pratt, King Tubby, Lloyd ‘Bullwackie’ Barnes, Bunny ‘Striker’ Lee, and Prince Jammy to name a few.
Horace Andy first found mainstream success in the early ’70s when he started to record for Coxsone Dodd, resulting in Studio One classics such as Skylarking, Every Tongue Shall Tell, and Mr. Bassie. He then found a new generation of fans in the 1990s, thanks to his work with trip hop pioneers Massive Attack.
Whether recording in Kingston or in numerous locations around the world, Horace has kept his sleepy choirboy delivery and conscious roots intact, maintaining his reputation as a favoured vocalist amongst reggae fans.
