Thank you for all the email love and to all the radio stations who've been spinning the tracks!

"Stacked with catchy songs that glisten with pop sheen... lush delicate and infectious... Just about as good as it gets" - First Coast News
"Holmes is a singer-songwriter who pens the kind of melodic, unpretentious songs that scream for usage in film and TV. There's a humor, wistfulness and universality that would compare well with some of the best of Ben Folds or Beck" - Los Angeles Times
"Seek this music out and your soul will be shaked and baked" - PowerPopaholic
Holmes’ music career started in Boston where he worked as a bar pianist and session keyboardist while studying at Berklee College of Music. He then moved to NYC, working as a composer, and now resides in LA spending his time producing records, taking care of his aging dog, staying up late, occasionally composing for television and running his own record label. His music has been featured on dozens of television shows and movies. From time to time he'll get out of his studio, leave his beloved vintage recording gear unattended and play a live show with his talented friends. Holmes given name is Roy. He answers to either one.
Hey Holmes! You got my vote! Best of luck to you and continued success. If you get a chance...please check out my newest blog and vote for my shirt design at Vet Friends .Com. It's something close to my heart. Mark Orr Photography
