John Hollier (pronounced OH-LEE-AY) is a powerful new folk rock voice hailing from Nashville with French-Cajun roots, blending rock and roll, heartland grit, cinematic storytelling, and southern country soul. John grew up on a crawfish farm in central Louisiana - while his first language was English, you'll hear some phrases, locations, people, and arrangements in his music that tips his hat to the region and his family's French heritage. His debut album Hollier, released in 2023, was produced by Eric Masse, and featured Madi Diaz and a studio band with members of Cage the Elephant, Deer Tick, and Miranda Lambert. Soon after, John assembled a touring band to bring the new songs to life on stage. They lit up the scene with a release show at Nashville's Whiskey Jam, prompting the promoter, Ward Guenther, to post a video declaring "We maybe see a couple shows like this once every year or so." The viral moment drew tens of thousands of views and marked the arrival of a dynamic new voice in American rock. Since then, John and his band have been on the road opening for Red Clay Strays, Randy Rogers Band, The Cadillac Three, American Authors, and Flatland Cavalry, while also performing at Jazz Fest 2024 (main stage), CMA Fest, and Americana Fest. Now after thousands of van miles and hundreds of feet of reel to reel tape in the studio, John is proud to launch John Hollier & The Rêverie - featuring his touring and studio band Teddy Thibedoux Jones (sax), Zachary Scott Kline (lead guitar), Ray Akers (bass), and Brian Cox (drums). Their first single "If She's Lonely" captures the band's raw live energy and hints at the explosive storytelling on their forthcoming album (Thirty Tigers). With a sound that nods to Springsteen, Texas red-dirt, and the bayou alike, John Hollier & The Rêverie are carving out a lane all their own - one foot in the swamp, the other charging ahead.
