Holden are a Folk/Rock four piece from London, fuelled by character, energy and a lust for making authentic music for the masses to embrace.

The voice of lead singer/acoustic guitarist Jedd Holden carries a soaring pure emotive tone amply backed and harmonised by brother Ant Holden, wielding a sharp, piercing layer on lead electric guitar. Dan Coffey on bass guitar lays a competent and solid foundation blending his own baritone voice to the brothers’ whilst Kris Lousley on drums attaches intricate hi-hat work to tasteful grooves.

Gathering bites of inspiration from Fred Neil, Nick Drake, Duane Allman and The Who, Holden produce a live show that teeters from delicate solo voice to brazen explosive power, unleashed with fantastic swiftness.

With roots buried in a rich pageantry of storytelling, all four members’ backgrounds contribute to influencing their songs with an unofficial mantra of “championing the underdog”.

With a limited edition EP ‘The Netherhall Sessions’ recently finished, along with several new videos of brand new material AND an album on the way, Holden are very much a band on the ascendency.
