Space Academy presents, one night only with Jolie Holland.Jolie Holland is a poet and song crafter who has spent the last two decades carving out one of the most unique careers in American music. She uses experimental methods and avant-garde sonic textures to challenge listeners’ perceptions with her signature blend of folk, jazz, and blues across her acclaimed discography. Beginning with Catalpa (2002), self-released then later embraced by ANTI-Records, she followed it with Escondida (2004), Springtime Can K*ll You (2006), The Living and the Dead (2008), Pint of Blood (2011), Wine Dark Sea (2014), and the collaborative Wildflower Blues (2017) with Samantha Parton.
Her latest LP, 2023’s Haunted Mountain, was created in collaboration with Buck Meek of Big Thief. The album, lauded by NPR as “a gorgeous, ghostly, bloody record,” continued her fearless exploration of love, loss, beauty, and the challenging circumstances of our times. With her smoky, spellbinding voice and unflinching lyrical honesty, Holland reckons with themes of dispossession, ecological grief, and resilience, offering songs that feel both intimate and universal.
She remains one of music’s most honest and boundary-pushing storytellers, crafting work that is earthbound yet otherworldly, political yet profoundly human.
