Биография

Born and raised in the American South, Claire Holley grew up listening to her Dad's classical (and country) records and soaking up her grandmother's jazz piano playing. She began writing songs in college, and thanks to the support of WUNC and a generous producer stumbled into a career of music. Her self-titled debut from Yep Roc Records was featured on NPR's Weekend Edition, and Huffington Post called Claire's voice "achingly beautiful." Since living in Los Angeles, Claire has written music for theater productions (including the Actors Co-op in Hollywood), short and feature length films (including two recipients of the UCLA Directors Spotlight Award), a children’s book, and even a ballet. No Depression called Time in the Middle "one of 2015's finest albums" and her powdercoat ep with Kristin Mooney won the 2014 MIAL "Best in Popular Music" (she's released twelve records to date). Her latest, Every Hour, features modern arrangements of hymns and sacred songs, ranging in style from a 4th century carol to southern gospel and a Beach Boys cover. Just before the lockdown, she wrote and directed music for The Tempest with Mississippi College students in five performances in early 2020. During the quarantine, Claire has enjoyed a variety of collaborations, including writing music for Melancholy Play as performed by students at the Episcopal School of Los Angeles.
