Solo pianist Holly Bowling is an artist who repeatedly defies convention, breaks ceilings, and eludes simplistic labels, while bringing virtuosic playing, emotional immersion, and a thirst for invention to everything that she does. Acclaimed by Rolling Stone and having jammed with a long list of impressive company (Bob Weir, Jim James, Warren Haynes, John Scofield, Branford Marsalis, and many more), Holly has established herself as a virtuoso pianist with her own musical voice. 

Holly has fostered a strong sense of identity while musically shapeshifting to the task at hand, from joining Grateful Dead’s Phil Lesh for extended explorations of “Dark Star,” to recording dance tracks with LP Giobbi. She is a frequent guest of Greensky Bluegrass, with whom she recorded The Iceland Sessions EP in 2023 as well as appearing on the previous year’s Stress Dreams. Her solo piano arrangements span across genres, featuring songs from The National and Nine Inch Nails to Phish and the Grateful Dead, and have been featured in several independent films in addition to opening the door to performances at storied venues from Carnegie Hall to Red Rocks.
