With his captivating new album, “99 Degrees”, Holt shines a light on those complications, exploring the almosts and the in-betweens, the missed chances and the could-have-beens, the close calls and the never-quites. The characters here contain multitudes, walking a fine line between hope and desperation as they navigate a world that seems perpetually stacked against them. The music is similarly rich and nuanced, drawing on everything from 70’s AM rock and soulful folk to raucous boogie woogie and second line funk. Holt cut the majority of the album in just two days with an all-star band of Nashville heavyweights (many of whom he knew from his own work as a first-call session player and sideman), and the result is a collection of raw, spontaneous, organic performances that breathe life into his stories of everyday folks living on the margins — ordinary men and women struggling to get by, stay in love, and find a little bit of light in the darkness.
