About Me

BAND MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
Jordan Carris

Please state your name and instrument for the fans.
Jordan Carris... guitar!
How long have you been playing your instrument?
I've been playing the guitar for 9 years.... but I didn't take it too seriously until the past 5 years. I've taken lessons from different people off and on.
Can you name some artists who have influenced you as a musician
Um... Skillet, The Cranberries, Toby Mac, Flyleaf, Eve 6, Falling Up... yeah, and Family Force 5.
Of all the bands you’ve seen perform live, who is your favorite? Why?
Definitely Skillet! Every time I see them live, they inspire me as a musician and as Christian. John is the man. John inspires me to be authentic... he's real on stage and off. That's how I want to be.
So, you’re in Hollow… what’s that like? What’s your favorite part?
Hollow's great.... I get to hang out with my friends, who also double as my family. The highlight of any "Hollow practice" is our traditional IHOP run afterwards. Mmmmm....
If your wildest dreams could come true, what would they look like?
That God would provide a way for Hollow to be able to make music our career, not just our dream. Post-Hollow retirement, I would love to open my own studio and produce other artists.

Influences: BIOGRAPHY
The rock band Hollow originally formed in March of 2004 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and has been known to frequent both Christian and mainstream venues in the Oklahoma City area, as well as Kansas and Texas.
Hollow is Alana (vocals) and Will Warfel (bass guitar), Alana’s brother Jordan Carris (lead guitar) and his wife Katy (vocals), and their friend E.J. Hayes (drums). The band’s family ties and Christian foundation from a young age have allowed them the opportunity to sing together for most of their lives. Each member of Hollow has extensive experience in music ministry, whether it is locally, nationally, or internationally.
Hollow writes and performs original music, and combines a unique blend of vocal harmonies with rock accompaniment.
The name Hollow echoes God’s calling for His followers to rid themselves of anything of this world and to fill themselves with the Spirit and mind of Christ. The members of Hollow have made this their mission.
Hollow has had the opportunity to play with several notable artists, including: Bon Jovi*, Project 86, Spoken, Family Force 5, Disciple, Jessie Daniels and Radial Angel among others.
