  • Bio

    The smiling Dutch cowboy named John Holk sings psychedelic honky-tonk music for besotted females and males alike. Half Gram Parsons, Nick Lowe and Robert Pollard, Holk's originals spring forth from a place so deep in his subconscious that many listeners swear he's in a dream state when he sings them. Backed by the Sequins (voted "crispest honky tonk band" in 2010) this formidable unit is pulling in new disciples daily.

    I can't wait to move to the USA this summer!

    In my excitement, just thought I'd message you to say hello!

    Take it easy, and see you in the US (although I'm moving to Atlanta, I'll be touring around a lot) :o)
