About
"She takes her music from the folkier side of Laura Marling, which we heard on previous material, to closer to Courtney Barnett territory." - Spotlight Music UK
Holly is an emerging indie-folk singer-songwriter who grew up in the moors of the Durham Dales. Her debut EP 'Ilex', released in 2017, received support from BBC 6 Music and a feature on Tom Robinson's BBC Introducing Mixtape. 2018 has seen this success continue with festival slots at Hit The North and Evolution Emerging, as well as supporting the likes of CoCo and the Butterfields, Joseph J Jones, X Factor's Sam Lavery, and Hannah Trigwell. Her sophomore EP ‘Slow Down’ was released in August 2018, reaching #6 in the iTunes charts alongside support from BBC Introducing and even radio play further afield in the USA, and was followed by a UK tour with Matt Dunbar.
