Jazz, Funk, Hip Hop, Classical, Rock, Reggae, Gospel, World, Pop, Latin, Metal, Dance, Flamenco, and many many more.
There are so many bands that it is a little silly trying to list them all. All music has something to offer. There are so many influences outside of music as well it would take forever to put them all down.
Frederic Hollis was born in 1989 in Norwich. At the age of three he moved to a small country town called Stalham. Surrounded by countryside, his life was quiet and uneventful. However at the age of 4 this all changed, he discovered music. He was then to be found singing and dancing along to Michael Jackson and various other artists. A little while later he was given a (toy) saxophone (that blew bubbles) and he then decided that what he really wanted to do was play his heart out to people all over the world. This lasted for close to a week when his eyes were caught by the glamorous world of stunts and explosions. After being told by his parents that becoming a stunt man was NOT an option he realised once more that a life of music was what he wanted.
He first realised that he wanted to be a bass player when he was 8 years old, but didn't start playing properly until the age of 12. When he was 14 he met the man that would change everything, his music teacher Adam Lawrence. Adam taught him what music was really about. At the age of 17 he joined a professional function band. This is when he met Mr Simon Dring. After playing with this band for over a year Simon introduced Fred to Oli Brown and, as all ready stated by Mr Dring, the rest is history.
Fred Hollis is proud to endorse Warwick bass guitars and Rotosound strings.
