Roy Holdren: Home

Thank you for your votes and support in the CMT/NSAI songwriting contest. I found out that "The Bouquet" did not win listeners choice. Just wait till next year....

Thanks to all that voted for my song "The Bouquet" in the NSAI/CMT songwriting contest. Votes are being tabulated and when I get the results I'll let you know

I "accidentally" put out a new CD! I do sound effects for plays. I had done the sound effects for the Bloomington Arts Center production of "On Golden Pond". The director was looking for music to play between scenes and I was sure I had just what he was looking for. I had some acoustic fingerpicking tracks I had pitched for an outdoor film that hadn't got picked up. I wrote a new one to go with them and added some loon sound effects in the background. Very organic and calming.
The very first night of the production someone came up to the sound operator and asked where they could buy the songs they'd heard. The requests kept coming in and "Northern Reflections" was born! My wife, Mary, did all the graphics and we are producing them at home. I'm opening a store at: www.myspace.com/royholdren if you'd like to download them or contact me if you'd like a hard copy.
