To say Paul Holland plays with passion is an understatement. The Indianapolis based singer songwriter performs with a true intensity rarely seen and has quickly come to find himself silencing rooms somewhere in between a whisper and belting out lessons of life, loss and love while bearing his soul for everyone to see. Holland is no stranger to performing music and makes it seem as if it were only natural. With nearly two decades under his belt being on stages, he spent years honing his craft playing on street corners, in bars, at open mics and everywhere in between. His songwriting and guitar work seem to be equally evolved with an edge of rawness meets study. Being primarily acoustic at the moment, Holland’s exact style is tough to pin down. His writing belies a lot of life lived in a short while that sometimes speaks to loneliness and the wandering human spirit yet his songs seem to sound familiarly timeless while remaining uniquely his own. Holland has played music with a diverse cast of performers from groups such as The Lumineers, Bright Eyes, Courtney Marie Andrew’s and blues legend Chris Duarte among many others. With that variety, versatility is a reflection of Holland himself.
Ray Hoskins has written songs and played music for over 50 years and recently released his debut album Posioned Apple Lies. Ray regularly plays shows at places all over central Indiana and resides in nearby Beech Grove.
Rogers Lee brings a unique life of experiences to his songwriting. He has an impressive business resume, but just recently started sharing his music with the world. His love of family, friends and people surround his music and draws you into his world.
The HJ Ricks Centre for the Arts is a fantastic venue for this event and we will have Moonshine and Music cameras on hand to record the action for later release on the YouTube and podcast channels. Come be a big part of the show and excitement of LIVE ORIGINAL MUSIC!
