About Me

Josh Sinton conceived the band holus-Bolus in winter of 2004. Individually, the members of holus-Bolus have played all over the world (India, Ethiopia, Belgium, Shanghai, New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Nashville, Israel). Collectively they combine their experiences to form a cohesive unit. Their music runs the gamut from garage rock to jazz to experimental ??
