HOLLINGS
Hollings began her musical journey singing in the forests of her backyard in Georgia at the age of 5. She trained in choirs and attended a performing arts high school in Atlanta, which eventually led to performing alongside Josh Groban. At 19, she co-founded her first band, Beat the Grid—a dance-rock blend of funk, afrobeat, and jazz—with cellist/producer Daniel Frankhuizen and other Ithaca College musicians. Their debut album was released in 2013 and promoted by AAM, Inc. The band lived and performed in NYC from 2012-2015.
For the past seven years, Hollings has regularly performed with a variety of rock, electronic, and reggae projects, such as Double Tiger and The Crucials (featuring members of John Brown’s Body and Jimkata). She has also contributed vocals to electronic and hip-hop tracks by artists such as Ethereal, Made Groceries, and Glass Meadow, and was featured on soundscape artist Nathan Moody's album A Shadow No Light Could Make.
In 2018, she released her debut EP, Necromancing, co-produced by Dana Billings and featuring musicians from across New York. The album blends eclectic rock with haunting layered vocals, R&B rhythms, and shimmering synths, creating a cinematic soundscape that explores themes of ancestral connection, nature’s rhythms, and self-reflection through layers of conflicted perception. Her lyrics are beautifully introspective and poetic, with powerful imagery around transformation, shedding burdens, and embracing personal growth.
As a solo electronic artist, Hollings continues to evolve, releasing her latest singles, Vampire Disco (Oct 2024). Her band is now a 4-piece, making for a stronger rock & improvised lounge sound. She also studies Psychedelic Therapies and organizes unique events in New York through her company, Siren Styling. Her song "Flotilla" is featured in Relix's September 2024 Artist Sampler. Her next release, an atmospheric ambient electronic collab with producer Treneti will be released in March 2025. Hollings is moving back south to New Orleans for the Spring, looking ahead at collabs and open to opportunities.
