Details:
Produced by Austin's well-respected guitarist and songwriter Scrappy Jud Newcomb, Boxful of Trouble provides the listener with a variety of musical styles in nine original songs introducing Bonny Holmes, Austin singer/songwriter.

Though there was never a time when music was not part of Bonny's life, this is her first stab at the relatively young independent Americana record business. Starting out as a six year old who actually liked practicing the piano, Ms. Holmes progressed to teen-aged folkie, 20-something R & B singer/pianist, 30-something New York City country singer, and finally, to Austin singer/songwriter. Bonny currently appears regularly on stage with left-of-center country rockers Blue Diamond Shine, as well as with her own "Bonny Combo".

Producer/guitarist "Scrappy" Jud Newcomb, drummer Dana Myzer, and bassist Michael "Cornbread" Traylor make up the studio band, augmented by keyboard/accordion whiz Chip Dolan, trumpet maestro Oliver Steck, singers Walter Tragert and John Stark, guitarist Eric Hisaw, mandolinist Rick Smith, and a collective of singers known as Uberwench. Freed from career expectations and industry pressures, Bonny, Jud and company were able to create a collection of songs well worth taking home.
