Emelin: Holly Bowling
Holly Bowling is a classically trained pianist whose reimagining of songs by Phish and the Grateful Dead for solo piano has earned her critical acclaim by Rolling Stone, Billboard, Relix and more.
In 2015, she arrived as an exciting outlier on Distillation Of A Dream: The Music Of Phish Reimagined For Solo Piano. As her profile rose, she delivered Better Left Unsung only a year later. For this triple-LP, she re-arranged iconic moments from the Grateful Dead on her piano. It bowed in the Top 25 of the Billboard Top Classical Albums Chart.
She’s gone on to share the stage with everyone from The Dead’s Weir and Phil Lesh to Warren Haynes, John Scofield, Jim James, Branford Marsalis, Don Was, Robert Randolph, Greensky Bluegrass, and more
