Rooted in Old-time, Americana, and Bluegrass traditions, Holler Choir’s sound is ultimately singular by design. Alongside Roberts and Grimm, a rotating cast of gifted Appalachian musicians contributes to the group’s recordings and electrifying live performances.
Holler Choir began during the recording of Roberts’s 2022 solo EP, Mountain Air, at Asheville’s Crossroads Studios. That fortuitous gathering of roots musicians proved to be the genesis of an unmistakable new sound. Produced by Grammy Award–winning multi-instrumentalist Michael Ashworth of The Steep Canyon Rangers, the five-song EP lit the fuse, setting Holler Choir on a path to delight audiences throughout the Southeast and beyond. Much of that same collective reunited to record the band’s 2024 debut full-length album, Songs Before They Write Themselves, tracked in the historic church room at Echo Mountain Studios and engineered by Jason Richmond (Avett Brothers, Rising Appalachia).
Grimm officially joined the fold in the summer of 2024 after being invited to collaborate on Holler Choir’s Susto Stringband project, which reinterprets the indie-rock Americana songwriting of Susto’s Justin Osborne through old-time and bluegrass lenses. As Roberts and Grimm continued working together, Grimm’s sharp lyrical wit and wide-ranging multi-instrumentalism quickly proved to be a powerful addition to the band’s creative core. Holler Choir is slated to release its first collaborative record under this lineup in late 2026 or early 2027.
