John Holk & The Sequins are part of a new wave of country-influenced songwriting bands from the post-industrial wastelands of Detroit. Originally from Ann Arbor, MI John Holk has played bass and sang in dozens of memorable local bands including Billy, The Bucket, Etch-A-Sketch and the Mixolydian Slaves. Collectively, the Sequins hail from such local standouts as Blue Dog, Shotgun Wedding and the Howling Diablos. Inspired by equal parts Hank Williams and Robert Pollard, John Holk & the Sequins use the basic instrumentation and honky tonk aesthetic of country western music to create new rock & roll that is both entertaining and experimental.

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.
I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
Christian
