Holly Etchison
Wearing her heart on her sleeve, Holly Etchison’s interests are art and music. She reads, writes, takes photographs, and makes earrings out of recycled cans. She enjoys acoustic-based folk and country music (sad songs say so much), singer/songwriters in the traditions of Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Rickie Lee Jones, Harry Nilsson and Julie Miller but isn’t afraid of a little rock and roll. She believes in new sounds, the kind that can bust through the ceiling, or anything that stirs the spirit. You could most likely find her wandering in the woods or listening to the latest Wovenhand record.
