Holly Halliwell, an up-and-comer in the Christian pop music scene, has signed to Integrity Music’s Integrated Music Rights platform. Known for her heartfelt lyrics and dynamic pop sound, Holly is poised to bring a fresh energy to the genre.
Holly’s musical journey began in the small town of Hoopeston, IL, where she grew up harmonizing on bluegrass songs with her dad, leading worship at her local church, and immersing herself in music at school. Inspired by her musical family and a handful of classic acts, she started writing songs at the tender age of 11, crafting melodies in her head before transferring them to piano.
Holly's involvement in church youth conferences ignited her faith, leading her to merge her passion for music with her devotion to God. Her musical talents and charismatic presence shone brightly when she won her hometown’s pageant in 2016. College led to her meeting her future husband, Walter Halliwell, who is also a producer, and the pair began touring after graduation, performing hundreds of concerts around the country in support of other artists. Feeling led to focus on her own music, Holly stepped off the road just before the COVID-19 pandemic pause, which provided her the perfect opportunity to write and produce her own songs, with Walter at the production helm. Their hard work and dedication paid off, resulting in Holly having the opportunity to record one of her songs with Grammy award-winning producer Seth Mosley, and the other four with Walter, culminating in over 500K streams on her five independent singles. Holly has grown an impressive social media community that includes 289K followers on TikTok and a reach of over seven million.
Now based in Nashville, Tennessee, Holly is committed to bringing a new pop energy to the Christian music scene with her honest and hopeful lyrics. Her debut single, "Stay," has been released on all streaming platforms, and the first single of her two-part EP is set to release this year, with Part 1 coming early 2025. Listen to "Stay" HERE. Holly also recently signed with First Company Management for artist management and with Platform Artists for booking.
"We are delighted to welcome Holly Halliwell to the First Company Management family," said Dave Wagner, General Manager at FCM. "Her passion for her faith and her music is truly inspiring, and we believe she has a bright future ahead in the Christian music industry."
"When we heard the first few song demos from Holly, we immediately wanted to partner with her for booking," said Ember Tanksley, Platform Artists. "She has a fresh sound, seamlessly blending worship and pop together, and a ministry mindset that relates to a wide demographic."
