Award-winning music journalist, critic and artist development consultant Holly Gleason returns to the podcast for a solo outing to discuss her eclectic and electric career as one of the music industry's leading voices. Over the years, she has written for Rolling Stone, the Los Angeles Times, the New York Times, Playboy, Spin, and the Miami Herald.
Holly's most recent collaboration, the #1 New York Times best-selling memoir Heart Life Music, written with country music superstar Kenny Chesney, has helped to cement Holly's reputation as an in-demand ghostwriter who pushes her subjects to reflect on life, music, and the vagaries of fame.
She is the co-author of the best-selling, story-laden cookbook Y'all Eat Yet?: Welcome to the Pretty B*tchin' Kitchen, with Miranda Lambert, and editor of the acclaimed compilations Prine on Prine: Interviews and Encounters with John Prine, and Woman Walk the Line: How the Women in Country Music changed Our Lives.
The recipient of the 2023 LA Press Club's Entertainment Journalist of the Year and 2024 National Arts & Entertainment Journalism's Independent Journalist awards, Holly lives and works in Nashville, Tenn., where she occasionally writes lyrics (as "Lady Goodman") with such noted songwriters as Rodney Crowell, Bill Deasy, Travis Hill, and the late Guy Clark.
