Pete Holland


“The songs I write are pretty simple. They sound more like the past than the future. Some are a little bit old-timey. Most are about stuff from my life, but with some hyperbole, metaphor, and abused liberties. Some are fiction, most are non-fiction-ish. Insert current hybrid genre with ‘folk’ in the name here. I’ll avoid saying it sounds like this guy meets that guy. Because I was there when those two guys met, and this was not the sound.

However, I will tell you that these are my favorite guys, in an order I thought of: Pete Steinberg, Nat Keefe of Hot Buttered Rum String band, Tim Seely, Tim Bluhm, Mother Hips, Patrick Park, Uncle Tupelo, Elliott Smith, The Jayhawks, Ryan Adams, Radiohead, Neil Young, Bob Dylan.

Never been married. Born 1977 in Northern California. Live in 2004 in Southern California. I like to run, swim, camp, ski, watch football, cook, eat, and read, non-fiction mostly. I won’t list TV as something I like to do, but I do watch it, at least a little almost everyday. I work as a bartender at the place you always drive by, but have never gone in.”
