Having made quite an impression over the last year, with hits ‘Impossible Like You’ and ‘House Of Cards’ in which both received high rotation on Triple J and critical acclaim. Following lauded performances on their sold-out national headline tour in support of debut release The Pacific EP, ‘Holy Holy’ could just be one of the country’s most promising bands.

Already locked in as the special guests for Boy & Bear on their upcoming ‘Get Up And Dance’ theatre tour throughout September, the band have now announced 1. the release of their third single – ‘History’, and 2. a national headline tour throughout October and November – The History Tour. Things obviously happens in two’s for this band.
During a break in the recording studio, the band started playing with an idea that had previously been little more than voice memo; recorded on telephones and relayed between band members via SMS. Although they had never before played the idea together in the same room, something just clicked.
“Thankfully, mics were set up and Matt was nearby – so, against our more controlling instincts, we went along with it. Within the space of half an hour we had not only nutted out the structure of the song, but we had also recorded it on to tape. We could easily exaggerate the spontaneity of this process, but in this case we haven’t – it was that simple”. – Oscar Dawson (Guitarist)
So put this in your diary twice peeps because this is one of the stories you say to your friends “I was listening to them, years ago”.
