Event
Danika and Jeb
Skyflight Productions presents an evening with Danika Holmes and Jeb Hart on Saturday October 22, 2016 at The Grange Hall in Barnesville, OH. Dont let the optimistic take on life in Danikas music fool you into thinking shes never endured hardship. She has... and plenty of it. She just chose to focus the message of her music on overcoming challenges and getting through lifes hardest moments in one piece, and being better for it. Danika believes music has the ability to heal. But thats not all. A well written song and performance can lead you to sing along, to laugh, or to bop your head and groove with the beat. Thats what you can expect from a Danika Holmes show... not just songs, but an experience to remember.
You may have heard Danika on Sirius XMs Coffee House station or on one of 150 radio stations around the US spinning her tunes. Or maybe you saw her opening for acts such as Dierks Bentley and Phil Vassar. Or in theaters, wineries, clubs and living rooms around the US, UK and Europe in one of over 400 shows since 2010 when she decided to pursue music full time, abandoning her PhD, only a dissertation short of becoming Dr. Holmes. But thats a different story...
In 2010, Danika joined forces with guitarist Jeb Hart, a phenomenal player whos not afraid of shredding on an acoustic guitar. Jebs clean and sophisticated style of playing along with Danikas smooth, soulful vocals has created their own unique blend of acoustic pop. Fans come to Danika shows expecting to hear Jeb Hart on guitar the same way they know theyre going to get Slash at a Guns N Roses concert.
While the music is positive and encouraging, an occasional song veers to the dark side, addressing heartbreak and death, in particular the loss of Danikas dad to cancer, while showing a very real and genuine side to the singer-songwriter. Balance Vol. 1 (2014) is the Nashville duos most recent release and was generously fan funded through kickstarter, as was their most recent full band release Living Your Dream. (2010) Danika grew up as one of five kids on the Mississippi River in a little piece of heaven known as Iowa.
Jeb Hart is the creator of Six Month Guitar.
Jeb started playing music at age 9, starting with saxophone and then later adding guitar, bass, and drums. Throughout the years he has learned many more. In his college days he spent many hours in the studio writing and recording songs.
Jeb also filled in with hundreds of bands including blues, rock, metal, country, and even a 2 1/2 year stint with a big band. He has taught for 16 years, and has decided to perform full time with Danika Holmes. Jeb stated, "It's taken a long time to find a band that was worth pulling away from teaching for. I'm excited to see where we go in the next few years."
