THESE SONGS, Volume 1

Screen Shot 2014-09-19 at 1.08.24 PM

Holt is joined by Grammy, Gold Record and Dove Award winning friends on his latest release These Songs. As singer, songwriter and lead guitarist, Holt tackles most of the guitar parts himself, but he also trades licks – acoustic and soaring electric – with one of the most admired guitarists in modern history, 7-time Dove Award winner and 2-time Grammy nom Phil Keaggy. And Holt swaps solos with Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section guitar hero Will McFarlane (Bonnie Raitt, Carly Simon, Kid Rock, Toby Keith, Waylon Jennings, Joss Stone, too many to count).

You’ll also find 3-time Grammy winner Ashley Cleveland lending her soulful voice, and Grammy-nom/Dove Award “Producer of the Year” Ian Eskelin adding backup vocals. As for the rhythm section: Gold Record bass players Rick Cua and Jerry Livingston join the fray, along with Tony Morra (Steve Vai, Taylor Swift, Steve Lukather) and Ted Reinhardt (Spyro Gyra, Gamalon) on drums. Art Halperin, (who’s shared the stage with Eric Clapton, Santana, and Joni Mitchell) makes a cameo with some mandolin riffs.

See a complete credits list of all the musicians on the project, and who plays what on each song.
