Album Notes

Native Ohioan turned Seattle transplant, Holly started playing guitar in July of 1999 when, during her first east coast tour, her guitar player broke his hip before the first show on the tour.

Holly took his guitar, learned three chords, and finished her tour, finding that it was a blessing in disguise that her good friend was in excruciating pain.

In her first year on the acoustic music circuit, Holly was wowing national audiences at listening rooms from the Bitter End and Living Room in NYC, to Club Passim in Boston, to the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in 2000, to the Tractor Tavern and Summer Nights at the Pier in Seattle.

She has toured extensively throughout the US, greeting fans everywhere with her refreshing style of hybrid folk and blues, usually with her young children in tow.

Dream in Red is Holly's second record, and was produced by Evan Brubaker, and graced by musicians Dan Tyack (Bill Frisell/Danny Barnes), Keith Lowe (Fiona Apple/Duffy Bishop), Jonathan Kingham, Sean Halley, and Kym Tuvim.

brand new favourite

God, what is this music? Is this acoustic folk, no, angry folk like Ani, no, acoustic indie folk-rock, no, folk-blues-jazz, no. This is all in one and in originally Holly Figueroa style! Fantastic drum and bass structure in high fidelity sound quality with acoustic and electric guitars back Holly’ fine vocal. I really love this masterpiece and uforgettable music. Ani Di Franco is "Not A Pretty Girl", but Holly Figueroa is "A Really Pretty Woman". :-) This is my first Holly' CD, but not the last one!

Holly Figueroa's songs really grab my emotions! This album is engaging. The song lyrics are intelligent, intuitive, and good to sing with. I was given this CD--I knew a couple of songs but hearing the whole album really made the difference, it's an amazing album. And it keeps on growing on me. I would really urge you to give it a try, she is some songwriter.

Think Jonatha Brooke meets Dave Matthews. The 2nd CD from the founder of Indiegrrl. Introspective songwriting and lush production. Haunting folk storytelling, emotionally charged a cappella, bluesy semi acoustic alt-rock, and down and dirty blues.
