We’ve been talking and hinting and chatting about some big things going down on our site today, and guess what? The wait is over. We are happy to introduce to our newest series:
This week’s artist is British, and hot, and has great hair! Introducing you to…
Greg Holden
On Tour Now with Ingrid Michaelson
“Sing for the City” Available on iTunes September 22
UK singer/songwriter Greg Holden’s self-released debut CD ”A Word In Edgeways” was immediately featured on iTunes as one of “Today’s Best Singer/Songwriters” just one week after its release. Now this emotive and awe-inspiring artist is gearing up for his highly anticipated sophomore release, “Sing for the City” – available on iTunes September 22nd. Much of the music, including the lead track “You’re Scaring Me”, was inspired by Greg’s first time experiences performing in New York.
Just 10 weeks after launching his “Living Room Series” on YouTube, this ambitious live musician was the featured Spotlight Artist. Since then, he has been YouTube’s Spotlight Artist 3 times with more than 800,000 + plays.
Greg has shared the stage with acts such as Idlewild, Turin Brakes, The Subways and Ben Griffiths. He is currently on tour in the U.S. with Ingrid Michaelson and will wrap with a solo performance at Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles on October 9th.
