简介: A superb ballad singer who also knows how to swing a good song, Johnny Holiday is an ageless performer who is still in his musical prime. "I want listeners to believe what I sing, as if I am singing directly to them. All of the things I have experienced in my life go into my singing. I am a storyteller. I've been in the business since I was 11 and I've seen so much."
Very few performers have ever been active for as long a period and still emerged sounding in peak form. And very few dig as deep into the lyrics of classics from the Great American Songbook, give fresh and insightful interpretations, and sing with a smile in their voice. This is a talent just waiting to be discovered. (Scott Yanow)
