Hello Everyone, My name is Dominique Desiree Holloway. I was born on May 15, 1985 in Little Rock, Arkansas. I grew up singing. Whether it was around the house, in school, church or just playing around with friends. I always looked to sing songs by Babyface, Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson, etc... They are some of my favorites. I attended the performing arts Junior High school and the Performing Arts High school, in Little Rock, Arkansas. And now I am about to finish my college degree in Vocal Performance, with a Minor in Theater Dance. I am classically trained but I have this thing for funky pop and ballads that I have to release. So I am doing something about it right now.!!! At this moment, I write, arrange, compose and record my own songs. And sometimes I write music with my brother and my really good friend Eddy. Eddy I love you!!!! Your the sweetiest!
Why this name?
I just went with my natural born name.
Do you play live?
Yes I could play live, but I don't at the moment. Communicating with your audience is a very important thing.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It makes it easier for artists to be heard that don't live in places like New York City where most of the opportunities are.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes, I would if it could happen and I wasn't doing something else, and I don't want to do anything else but this. Haha.
Your influences?
I love Motown's stylish sound. I love Michael Jackson so much! His charisma is fantastic! I love Janet, and her dancing style is unlike her brothers and she is wonderful as well. I love to hear Mariah Carey's old music, when it was so touching and her voice was fresh and new.
Favorite spot?
My favorite city is Little Rock, Arkansas. It's a beautiful place in some areas. And that is where the state comes to life!! The life of the party! That's where alot of big music concerts go on in Little Rock. My favorite place to be is at my home, in Jacksonville, Arkansas. It's so peaceful and quiet. It's almost like living in a beautiful park. I am so greatful.
Equipment used:
I use the music software Sonar 6, a computer, my keyboard/piano, and my musical mind.
Anything else...?
Music is my life. I have done nothing else but music, and I consider that a gift. Once more... Music is my life and I love it!!!!
