The Postcards

About Me

Originally formed by Megan Storie and Dan Hornsby in Muncie, IN, The Postcards began as an acoustic duo performing at a few local venues and the houses of friends. Since that time, The Postcards have independently released an album "Changing States" (available on iTunes). The Postcards, as a group, has come to include more musicians/friends in both recordings and performances. Along with Hornsby on guitar, harmonica, and vocals, the band now features John Goddard on bass and Kristin Henry on trumpet, auxiliary percussion, and vocals.
