#166 Christina Holmes

Episode 166

Wednesday, January 5, 2022 • Duration 55:00

Christina Holmes and Rae Leigh chat about working as an independent artist and the persistence and attitude that keeps it real for musicians who just want to work. Working mother and on the road touring for over 13 years, Covid and the world stopping has enabled some silver light situations allowing for other areas of Christina's life but she also was able to take advantage of the online streaming opportunity as well.

It documents the typically unseen splendor of struggle and offers the encouragement to forge ahead. Christina Holmes does so on her aptly titled third independent full-length album, The Beautiful Struggle [Cove House Records]. The New Jersey-born and Rhode Island-based singer, songwriter, and Cove House Records founder threads together stories of love and life across eleven alternative folk anthems united by her confessional lyricism and instrumental proficiency on guitar, bass, djembe, and piano.
