Details:
Envision Bono of U2 hanging out with Sarah McLachlan and then Janis Joplin stops in for a visit, this is what Grace Holmes brings to the stage. Explosive, powerful vocals that reach into the depth of the soul with nice hints of softness.

From 2001 to 2006, Grace lived in Los Angeles, CA. She played a wide array of venues. Including the exclusive Temple Bar in Santa Monica and the House of Blues and The Knitting Factory on Sunset Strip. She played to packed audiences, even having the honor of opening for Fishbone, a national touring act. In early 2006, her mother was diagnosed with lung cancer. So she returned to her semi-native Eugene, Oregon. Originally she comes from Santa Cruz, CA and Portland, OR, with some of her youth also spent in Eugene, OR. Since arriving, she has had the priveledge of playing around with some great local bands and solo acts.

She is currently in the studio working on her widely anticipated new album. This album will be a follow up to her previous release "In the Name of Love", released in 2003, and "People Get Ready" released in 2001. She also released 2 EP's, "Then I See Your Face" in 2002 and "It's All Over" in 2004. The "Then I See Your Face" EP's title track has been featured in a film featuring Academy Award Winner Louis Gossett Jr. It has been played in festivals all over the world and was featured on a special tv program in the Los Angeles area. It is also a hopeful for the Cannes Film Festival.

So look out for Grace coming to your town. She's currently pursuing a tour to promote her new and old work. That's it for now folks, don't forget to have a beautiful day!
