Bar On A

I love music its seems to be the only thing that clears my mind and keeps me from going insaine. This world is crazy and full of people looking to hurt you. I just try to sing about the struggles and addictions in my life, hoping that i can change others for the better. I love you all and thanks for supporting my attempt at entertaining you.

ColdStarr blends emo trap emotion with alt-grunge grit, wrapping it in haunting melodies and hooks that linger long after the song ends. Every track drips with atmosphere—bass that rattles the chest, vocals that cut through the dark, and lyrics that feel like secrets you weren’t meant to hear.

Melancholy you can sing along to.

Greg Holden is a British singer-songwriter known for his powerful songwriting and meaningful lyrics. His career took off with the success of his song "The Lost Boy”, written about the book What Is The What? by American author Dave Eggers. “The Lost Boy" gained widespread US attention after being featured on the TV show Sons of Anarchy. The track also helped raise significant funds for the Red Cross. Holden’s most notable achievement came with his co-writing of Phillip Phillips' hit single "Home," which became the best-selling American Idol coronation song of all time and earned multi-platinum status.

Over the years, he has released several albums, including I Don’t Believe You, the major label release Chase the Sun, featuring the songs “Boys in the Street”, labeled “A Perfect Song” by Actor Tom Hanks, and “Hold On Tight”, used extensively on commercials, films and TV shows.

All his albums reflect his socially conscious approach and his dedication to crafting authentic, resonant music. He has toured the world extensively and has shared the stage with prominent artists like Ingrid Michaelson, Brandi Carlile, Grace Potter, Butch Walker and A Great Big World, building a loyal fanbase along the way. Despite being an independent artist, Holden’s work continues to reach global audiences, solidifying his place in the music industry. He recently launched a podcast about the music industry called ‘DROPPED’, with his co-host Matt Belmont from the band Belle Mt.

In 2025 Greg will be releasing his fifth studio album and to celebrate he will be doing a monthly residency in his hometown of Portland, OR between January and April, at The McMenamins White Eagle Saloon. Tickets available on his website.
