About the Darren Holland Project

The Darren Holland Project is just that, a project with many players involved. The main two are husband and wife Darren and Cheryl Holland from Grain Valley, MO. Darren writes all songs and plays guitar, keys, bass, vocals, and programs. Cheryl plays percussion, keys, drums on some songs, and vocals and flute. On some songs, Barb Wilmoth adds backup vocals and drums, Scott Mitchell on guitar, and JenCat on vocals. Andy Oxman of Sound Works Recording Studio produces and records most songs in Blues Springs, MO.

Darren has been influenced by all he listens to, from the new to the old and in-between. He writes several genres but mostly stays within rock. His songs are catchy but always have a meaning behind them.

The Review

This track starts out with guitars, bass and drums playing in unison as if they were dancing with one another. Next, a  Woo! to accent the rhythm bass and guitar. To imply something really cool is about to happen so, brace yourself. Then the lyrics come in singing, "We Know We Both Have Reasons with you, Hang On The Wings Have Seasons, Miss You, Ah Fools or Angels" This is a breakup song and those are some interesting lyric really get your mind peaking to see what comes next. The bridge is rather quite nice with a guitar solo and the vocalist sings along side the solo. The track gets more intense as it goes, and the couple in this situation relies that what they had is really over and its time to bring in the "War Machines".

In conclusion, this is a really good track about breakup. It keeps you interest to see what comes next with the couple in the situation. The guitars,bass and drums were played perfectly setting up the stage for the story line. All the vocalists sung like song birds along side one anther. Readers I really enjoyed this track. And I encourage you readers to give it a listen. I'm sure you will love it!

The Review

Lemon Drop starts out with earth pounding drums played along side a guitar picking out 7 or 8 notes like an arpeggio. The sound is clear and very crisp. As they play in unison the vocals come in with outstanding sound a sound that the Darren Holland Project has that separates them from other bands in their genre. At the bridge they just let loose. the whole band just erupts with a wall of sound. The bass line in this track is phenomenal! I just love the percussion on this track. The drums just smack in a way that gets your heart pumping and your toes tapping. The guitars complement the sound with smooth picking of the notes that lead to the bridge the whole way though the track. Wow the guitar sounds as if its playing with at slide when playing the lead. This track is simple really out of this world good! Everything about this track is absolutely stunning.

In conclusion, This is one of my favorite bands to do reviews for. Every song that they present me is just knocked out the park good! Readers like I've said time and time before, check the Darren Holland Project band out they are truly an outstanding band. A band that I think every one that hears them will love and listen to their work over and over again. So, please give them a listen you will be in awe when you hear the talent of this wonderful band!
