Debby Holiday broke onto the dance scene with her 5 Billboard summer anthem Dive in 2004. Holiday followed the smash hit Dive with her power ballad Half A Mile Away, which shot into the Billboard Top 10, along with Debby's follow-up dance hit Bring It On.
Her next 2 dance singles, Piece of My Love & Surrender Me (with the incredible Tony Moran) also broke the top 10! Her latest project, Joyful Sound (*Nebula 9 Records), resonates of 90’s divas and modern sounds. Featured in this season’s hit LOGO show Sordid Lives: The Series, from writer/director/producer Del Shores, starring Olivia Newton John.
Debby Holiday's other recent projects include singing the title track to Courteney Cox's FX Network television series Dirt, a role in a national Sprint television commercial, and looping on the musical Dreamgirls. Debby continues to pump up the volume -- on the dance floors, live with her rock/soul band, and on television, with several recent placements including NBC’s The Office, FX Networks Dirt, Showtime’s hit The L Word and MTV’s the Pick Up Artist. Queer As Folk another Showtime hit, used two of Debby’s tracks including “Dive” & “Half A Mile Away” in their episodic finale.
Debby Holiday has shared the stage with legendary recording artists like John Waite and Rod Stewart, appearing on several television programs including The View, The Rosie O’Donnel Show and The David Letterman Show. During her career, Debby has toured and opened for rock superstars including Joe Walsh, Rod Stewart and Kiss.
Debby experienced every aspect of the music industry early on while growing up in Los Angeles, Ca. Her father Jimmy Holiday was a passionate and soulful artist, topping the charts with several of his own singles before going on to co-write such hits as Understanding by Ray Charles and Jackie DeShannon’s Put A Little Love In Your Heart. Another standard All I Ever Need Is You, turned out to not only be a top 10 single for Sonny and Cher – but also went on to be a huge country hit for Kenny Rogers and Dottie West. Naturally, this eclectic mix of music strongly influenced Debby’s own unique and compelling sound.
Landing a deal with Giant/Warner Bros. gave Debby Holiday the opportunity to work with a wide range of today’s top songwriters including Jeffrey Steele, Al Anderson, Marty Fredrickson, Billy Steinberg, Erik Brazillian and Clif Magness (Avril Levigne).
Debby Holiday also won over audiences in the juicy role of The Blues Singer in the Los Angeles production of the award-winning play The Trials and Tribulations of a Trailer Trash Housewife, written by Del Shores.
On the rock/soul front Debby Holiday completed her third independent LP Half A Mile Away (*Nebula 9). Containing 12 tracks featuring a mix of rock, soul and pop, this LP also contains the original versions of Dive and Half A Mile Away, Holiday’s songs that scored Top 5 and Top 7 on the Billboard Dance Club Play charts!!!
