Holland Andrews is a composer, vocalist, clarinetist, improviser, and performer whose work focuses on generating expansive tapestries of cathartic and dissonant soundscapes. Frequently highlighting themes surrounding transformation, healing, and the unknowable, Andrews composes music with their voice, clarinet, and electronics to serve as a vessel for these themes. As a musician, their influences stem from a dynamic range of styles, including contemporary opera, free jazz, american experimentalism, as well as ambient, drone, and noise music. A self-taught vocalist and improviser, Andrews has also been cultivating a unique vocal style, which integrates these influences with language disintegration, environmental foley, and vocal distortion. Some notable musical collaborations include Son Lux, Christina Vantzou, William Brittelle, JJJJJerome Ellis, yuniya edi kwon, Shahzad Ismaily, Darian Donovan Thomas, and Nils Frahm. In addition to creating solo work, Andrews composes and performs for dance, theater, and film, and they have collaborated with other luminary artists such as Bill T. Jones, Will Rawls, Otobong Nkanga, Sonya Tayeh, Jenn Freeman Dorothee Munyaneza, Narcissister, and poet Demian Dinéyazhi. Andrews is a FCA Artist Fellow (2023), USA Artist Fellow (2024), Creative Capital Fellow (2025), and Guggenheim Fellow (2025).
