About this episode
Welcome to Roadcase, a podcast exploring the live music experience!! Join us for this intriguing conversation with the spectacular Holly Bowling! Holly is a classically trained pianist whose improvisational work is legendary and well known in the jam band community, due to her painstakingly accurate transcription of Phish jams as well as her gorgeous piano renditions of Grateful Dead's music. During the Covid lockdown and subsequent show-hiatus, Holly created the "Wilderness Sessions," a collection of powerful and compelling live piano improvisations which took place across the country in a variety of amazing natural settings. Her most recent project, Lacuna, with Tom Hamilton, of JRAD and her bandmate in Ghost Light, is a unique instrumental and improvisational project where she and Tom simply played in a studio and recorded the results, which were extraordinary! Holly also sat in with Greensky Bluegrass at Red Rocks recently and that collaboration resulted in Holly joining Greensky on piano for their current Fall tour. She is also getting back on the road with Ghost Light in January. Holly has tons of thoughts on her playing style and why she does what she does; it's an intriguing look into the improvisational mind. So catch this amazing ride on the Roadcase bus for this conversation with piano virtuoso Holly Bowling. It's gonna be a great ride!!
