New Jersey native, Pentley Holmes is truly that rare artist whose work achieves both technical and emotional brilliance. A self-taught guitarist and vocalist, Holmes is as well-rounded musically as they come. Holmes’ background in creative writing allows him to unite his musical talent with an authentic expression of what it means to be alive. The nephew of the inspirational heavyweight boxing champion Larry Holmes, he is a fighter in his own right. In 2009, he survived a typically lethal ruptured brain aneurysm. His survival and recovery after 15 days in the ICU only furthered his inborn passion for life and his place in the world as a musician. He sings passionately and uses his instrument as the ultimate medium to express himself, applying it into a soup of contemporary blues and rock, as well as soul and pop, they resonate flavors concocted with points to say and purpose to move.
