HOLLAND GRECO

Hi!

2012 kicked off at a show in Pioneertown, CA (near Joshua Tree) with The Stripminers.

We had a great time doing this one.  The day started with a drive to the desert.  Upon arrival, we checked into the Pioneertown Motel and headed over to Pappy and Harriet’s.  Food was served…the broccoli and barbeque was notable, The Paul Chesne Band opened up, and then The Country  (members of Gram Rabbit) played a full set of new songs.

Here’s a pic by Paul Chesne:

Rumor has it that we will be playing a show at The Viper Room on March 3, 2012.

In the meantime, I am learning more Misfits songs…..stay tuned, as I hope to do some live shows of Misfits songs in late Feb. with my trio……

I am really feeling these videos today!

Clark Dark & I are in the process of creating a recorded album, and for some reason I decided to re-visit the precious videos of our 1 and only live show. What do u think?

I am so proud to announce that this song I sang for The Looney Tunes Show has aired on Cartoon Network! Thanks to Niki & Drew for recommending me, Warner Bros for hiring me, and Gerald White for his amazing classes at AFTRA that helped me have a vocal reel ready to submit for the job. Behold….”Yellow Bird” : )

and previously, in the land of cartoons……I sang this one a while back for Scooby Doo and the Legend of the Vampire, “Getaway, Yeah!”……
