HOLLY REES - Ask 6


HOW DID YOUR NAME ORIGINATE? It's just my real name! -

WHERE WAS YOUR FIRST GIG AND HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE THERE?

I played my first open mic night at No28 in Newcastle, and I can't really remember how many people were there but I was definitely pretty terrible.. -

WHEN WAS YOUR LAST DAY OFF AND WHAT DID YOU DO WITH IT?

I've recently had a lush week off from the Canadian tour and have spent it with a friend from home who flew over to join me for a bit! Lots of hikes, coffee and reading. -

WHAT IS SOMETHING - APART FROM YOUR PHONE OR WALLET - THAT HAS TO BE IN YOUR VICINITY AT ALL TIMES?

Probably my inhaler, or my glasses. #nerdalert -

WHICH SONG BY ANOTHER ARTIST DO YOU WISH YOU'D WRITTEN? There are tons but the first that come to mind is either Motion Sickness by Phoebe Bridgers ("I have emotional motion sickness, somebody roll the windows down" is such brilliant writing) or Hypersonic Missiles by Sam Fender. Such a great tune. -

WHAT'S BEEN THE MOST SURREAL FAN MOMENT?

I'm not sure, the fact there are people who are fans of my music still feels surreal to me! One of my favourites recently was someone posted to my facebook a pic of their kids in Holly Rees T-shirts which they'd tie-dyed, super cute.
