About the Album...
From haunting ballads to in-your-face rock anthems, Fire In My Bones, the impressive debut release from Portland, Oregon songwriter Holly Leer, will take you on a thrill-ride of emotions that will have you singing the infectious tunes for days after you’ve heard them.
Drawing comparisons to Tracy Bonham, Alanis Morissette and Tori Amos, Holly’s songs run the gamut from the beautifully introspective “Sister Moon” to the angst-ridden “Fire In My Bones” and touch on just about everything in between — love, anger, regret, and hope.
And her voice refuses to be ignored. Able to be soothing and soft one moment, and loud and raucous the next, her vocal control and ability allow her to deliver dynamic and emotional performances that will keep you coming back again and again.
A few points of interest about the album:
• The song “Hang On” is featured in the short film "Nerds Make Better Lovers," produced and directed by Dawn Ashley Cook
• "Teach Me To Fly" has been chosen to be included on the YouSendIt CD compilation for Music For Troops.
• In the final choruses of “Bitter Harvest,” Holly quotes musical themes from the “Dies Irae” movement of W A Mozart’s Requiem.
• The solo section of “Sister Moon” features Holly playing a Native American flute over a synth-like choir, which is actually dozens of layers of Holly’s voice.

• The album Fire In My Bones is available for purchase at CDBaby.com, as well as several digital download sites including iTunes and Napster.
