FIONA HORNE rockstar, author, pilot, Witch
ROCKSTAR – AUTHOR – TV/RADIO PERSONALITY - COMMERCIAL PILOT - WITCH
Fiona Horne is one of the world’s most respected Witches. She is the author of fifteen best-selling books on Modern Witchcraft, published internationally over the last two decades, which see her work having a generational impact on the evolution of the Modern Witch. Her tireless devotion to dispelling negative myths and stereotypes contributes to the freedom of Modern Witches to practice their Craft today without fearing vilification and persecution.
Thirty years ago, Fiona launched a career in the entertainment industry as the lead singer of chart-topping Aussie 90’s electro-rock band, Def FX, who enjoyed hits in the Top 20 US Billboard Dance Charts and regular high rotation on MTV, touring with bands like The Smashing Pumpkins and No Doubt. In 1997, she released her first book, ‘Witch’ with Random House and continued on to be a popular radio and television personality, appearing on many programs around the world.
Based in Los Angeles from 2001-2013, in addition to her many published books, Fiona scored prime time TV as ‘The Witch’ on SyFy Channel’s hit reality show, ‘Mad Mad House’ as well as being a regular guest on ‘Tyra’, ‘KTLA Morning News’ and KROQ’s ‘Loveline with Dr Drew’. Ryan Seacrest would call her ‘Fiona, The Hot Witch’ on E! News at the same time she was invited to speak at Harvard University on ‘Witchcraft in Modern Media.’
Moving to the Caribbean in 2013, Fiona stepped away from her entertainment career and worked as a commercial pilot, public speaker, and humanitarian/animal aid worker.
In 2017 Australian publisher, Rockpool Publishing/Simon & Schuster, invited her to write again, leading to three internationally published books, 2017’s autobiography, ‘The Naked Witch,’ 2019’s manifesto, 'The Art of Witch' and 2021’s ‘Teen Magick-Witchcraft for a New Generation.’ Fiona also released a debut Oracle deck, ‘The Magick of You’ to acclaim in 2019.
As her entertainment career picked up again, her busy career as a pilot ground to a halt during the extraordinary lock down events of 2020.
In June 2020, Fiona temporarily headed back to Australia and swapped out an airplane for a guitar, with two successful music projects, duo: ‘Spiff & Fifi’ and rock band: ‘Seawitch.' After achieving a number 1 Australian country radio hit with Spiff & Fifi (June 2021's 'Stumblin' In') and a number 2 debut on the Alt Indie Rock AIR Chart, November 2022, with Seawitch's debut album, 'Well of Spells,' Fiona has now set aside the guitar with her upcoming 2nd oracle deck, 'Dark Magick - Reveal the Light Within,' releasing September 2023 and more publishing projects on the boil.
Her 90's band, Def FX will be reforming for a concert tour in 2023.
Fiona's personal passions include being a 100 ft + freediver, SCUBA diver, world record holding skydiver and professional fire dancer.
