What listeners are saying:
"Loved it! Mika meets Pulp - humorous and intelligent and well constructed."
"Trendy and youthful."
"A feel of the Beach Boys-Kinks-Beatles."
"This guy is the next John Lennon."
While musical theater has long borrowed from pop, Holley's "theater-pop" borrows
from musical theater: character-driven songs with evocative settings. Complete
with Brill Building style arrangements, Confessions of a College Student is
essentially a radio-musical, as listeners follow the ups and downs of
infatuation, rejection, and retrospect.
Following the High School Musical phenomenon, audiences may now be ready for a
"College Musical". And, unlike University A Cappella by Ben Folds, this college
music is virtually a one-man record--much like the projects Ben Folds is known
for. (Appropriately enough, listeners often mistake Lamar Holley for Ben Folds,
because their voices are so similar.)
