They can change it all just like that.” -Holly “All my music and creativity comes from my grandad who was also a singer.”- Holly “Sometimes inspiration comes by meeting somebody and they tell me a story and I’m inspired to write something but it’s very natural. It’s usually at  9 a.m.  and I’m half asleep at my piano.” – Holly “I think it’s a song that doesn’t require music. It’s a story and the story is the most important part.”- Holly “You are not really concerned with the genre; it sounds like the music selected you” - James  Time Stamps: 00:54 Opportunity to get featured on the Dharmic Rising Star Playlist 01:27 Guest artist introduction 03:42 Holly’s skateboarding experience 06:55 Listen to “Something in the Way” by Holly 10:12 Why Holly wrote “Something in the Way” 11:16 How Holly discovered an interest in Shakespeare plays through her grandad. 12:42 Holly’s observation on social media and forming real interactions 14:30 James touches on dating sites and forming real connections 16:22 Holly’s interest in performing on Sofar Sounds 19:00 What is the process behind Holly’s songwriting 20:22 Holly’s upcoming tour in UK and Ireland 21:39 James wonderful advice for Holly’s stage appearance 23:50 Listen to Holly’s “Dreamer”. 28:30 How Holly came to discover “Dreamer” 30:45 How Holly got into singing as a career path 33:10 How Holly got into the Cannes Film Festival 35:10 How does Holly relax and spend time with family 36:47 Holly’s dog Chester makes a show appearance 37:57 Holly and Linktree 40:23 Holly’s Aspirations for her Music and Acting career 44:00 Listen to Ride On by James Kevin O’Connor   Spotify Playlist:   Make sure you’re not missing out on all our “Rising dHarmic Stars Spotify Playlists”.
