Singing lead male vocal is Carl D. Merta. Carl has been in bands since the age of 8. He has accumulated over 25 years of musical experience and has worked with many bands. He began singing lead and back-up vocals while playing with Bobby Lee and The Country Touch, Southern Comfort, and Young Country while playing drums. Carl played Drums for Horizon from its beginnings in 1994 until fall of 2002. Since then he has been out front as lead male vocal. Carl enjoys singing as much as he did playing drums for the group. He believes in giving his all every time the band performs. Singing is a new passion for him, one that fits him well. |

On bass, Daniel Clanton. Born in New Orleans and raised in Bay City, TX, Daniel began playing bass guitar at age 10. For the past six years Daniel played in Justice III, a band he and his father developed. Asleep at the Wheel, Bill Pekar, Radney Foster, and the legendary Ray Price are a few of the big-name artists with which Daniel has worked. When he isn't playing with the group, Daniel volunteers his time to play in the church worship band. He gives credit to his dad and Justice III for getting him to where he is today - bass guitarist for one of the hottest bands on the Texas dance hall circuit - Horizon! |

Chris Boise
Hailing from Atlanta, GA, Chris is the Catalina Wine Mixer of all drummers.
Rumor has it that he gets his talent from his father, David Boise.
Chris came on board in June 2010.
He may not be good at slappin' on paint ... but he can play some drums! |

Pete Salinas (aka Preacher Man), a native of Port Lavaca, is in charge of Sound Production and also helps with the load-in detail. Pete has had the opportunity to run sound for several Tejano Bands in the past, the largest and most popular being La Mafia. Pete has been involved in the music business for many years and his contributions to Horizon have been the greatest. He has a great sense of humor and has a unique way of bringing out the best in each member of the group. Pete's dedication to Horizon is respected highly by each member of the band and we always look forward to the camaraderie of the next job. |
