Bio / Background
Lorna Vallings is an independent recording artist based in Toronto, Ontario. A talented singer-songwriter, she has songs featured in major motion pictures - from Universal Pictures' "The Skulls (2000)" , to a films in Switzerland, and a television series in New Zealand.
Guitar-slinger Lorna Vallings is a 2003 Outmusic Award Nominee for "Outstanding New Recording by a Female Artist" for her 2002 folk-rock alt-pop offering: "If Wishes Were Horses." She has a world-wide fan base and is surrounded by international buzz.
Quieter than her debut CD, *Taste*, Horses is an intimate album with lush, high-quality production. It offers folk-rolk acoustic tracks, big alt-pop tracks, and sensual blues -- all with honest and evocative lyrics.
"If Wishes Were Horses is teeming with exotic production values and raw sensuality."
-- Renee Westbrook, GuitarGirls.com
"This is a CD for the hopeless romantic who wants their ears to be gently caressed with well-polished pop rock.

Lorna travelled for many years, taking up seasonal work and continuing to write. She pursued work in as culturally diverse and remote areas as possible: from living at sea on fishing trawlers on the Gulf of Carpenteria, to toiling for a construction crew in Hawaii, to wrangling cattle in Texas. She made her way to a performing arts academy in Canada - similar to the high school in "Fame", but without the spontaneous, musical, song-and-dance routines erupting in the cafeteria. Arriving fresh from Australia, she found that her classmates all had impressive performing arts resumes. Intimidated, she promptly ran away! Ending up in Pennsylvania, she called the dean of the performing arts school and convinced him to defer her admission to the following year. She eventually completed the school's curriculum and fell in love with Canada during her stay. She made the move from Australia and settled in Toronto.
