Singer and songwriter Greg Holden has made a name for himself as an independent artist for the past several years, thanks to his two albums, 2009’s ‘A Word in Edgeways‘ and 2011’s ‘I Don’t Believe You‘.

And you probably won’t stop hearing about him in the very next next days! The Scottish-born, England-bred and New York-based musician has released his major-label debut album, ‘Chase The Sun‘ (Warner Bros Records), produced by Greg Wells (who is the Adele and OneRepublic’s producer, not bad!). Inspired by a life-changing trip in India and Nepal in 2013, this album delivers a passionate rock music, driven by a vibrant energy and Holden’s subtle songwriting.

If the album’s title suggests a positive message, with the idea of staying focused on moving forward, ‘Boys In The Street‘ is perhaps the most poignant song of this opus. The artist originally wrote this song for compilation album being released by the LGBTQ organization Everyone Is Gay: « The instruction was to write ‘the gayest song ever,’ but I don’t really write happy, upbeat songs, I just can’t do it, so I wrote about a father and son who didn’t see eye to eye. The story explores the father’s lack of understanding towards his son’s sexuality. There is no bad guy, and no finger pointing. It’s a story with a message that I felt compelled to write about ».

We met the artist for a session with a striking contrast between the emotion released by ‘Boys In The Street‘ and the sunny, peaceful surroundings of Canal Saint Martin, Paris…
