This Albany trio won the Audience Favorite prize at our 2014 "Here Comes the Sun" street music festival last June. Laying down a mesmerizing, danceable funk, Holly on guitar and vocals, Evan on bass and vocals, along with drummer Bob Morris, update the traditions of the Barrelhouse with jazzy riffs and electric instruments. Holly's songwriting comes from a lifetime of reading about, listening to, and living the lifestyle of the blues. Her original songs, such as "Parchman Prison" and "Satisfied," were inspired by the Mississippi blues greats. Albany soul rocker Bryan Thomas will be joining the band and playing solo. He has been named "Best Male Singer-Songwriter" the Albany Times-Union and is a perennial Metroland favorite. Says Nippertown's Greg Haymes: "With Prince as his primary musical touchstone, Thomas' uncompromising songs are specifically local, yet gloriously global. He writes smart, and he writes from the heart, balancing intellect, passion and politics."
