ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Holly Hopkins’ musical expression draws on Jazz, gospel, R&B, and classical influences. Her musical presentation can be described as “contemplative chanteuse” with a southern soul flare. She is honored to work regularly with great venues and supportive, uber talented musicians. Holly is also very thankful for loyal fans that have continued to support her over the years.

On occasion you’ll find her participating in NC area Jazz series and festivals. In 2019 she will be making a third appearance at Old Town Cornelius Jazz Festival and in 2018 was featured on the Real Music Hangout live stream program. She has also twice been a guest vocalist at the O’Henry Hotel Jazz Series in Greensboro, and I has been honored to be a frequent guest at the Olde Hickory Jazz On Tap Show in Hickory, NC. Another highlight of her jazz career was to be one of the evening favorites at the open mic show at the legendary Birdland Jazz Club in New York City.
