Holly Elmhirst is a singer-songwriter who has been creating music as Angelou and Holly Lerski for over the course of two decades.
She has released four albums, many EPs and singles, and toured with artists such as John Hiatt, Jason Mraz and The Cranberries.
In 2019, she went on a songwriting road trip across America, healing a broken heart. Initial recordings featured James ‘Hutch’ Hutchinson (Bonnie Raitt), Tony Braunagel (Taj Mahal, Robert Cray) and Diego ‘El Twanguero’ Garcia and resulted in the 2021 Lerski and Hutchinson double A-side single, Carmel / Mighty Big Sur.
In 2022, she recorded her fifth album – the song cycle written on the road – with Nashville producer Matt Roley and the help of musicians Josh Hunt (Alison Krauss), SistaStrings (Brandi Carlile, Allison Russell) and Alex McCollough.
It was mixed by Jay William Henderson (Band of Annuals) and will be released in 2023, alongside an accompanying book.
