Award winning Holland Phillips' releases his 12th album on July 12th of this year. Titled

'A Sense of Distance', this powerful new album is a collection of songs chosen specifically to elicit self-reflection and positivity. Holland's lush orchestrations and expertly crafted melodies combine to create a deeply personal musical journey for the listener, using elements of Contemporary New Age, pop, neo-classical, ambient and jazz. Produced by Holland and Ronnie Campbell and mastered by 3X Grammy(R) Award winner Ricky Kej, this album is big both in terms of its orchestration, its pristine production and its sound.

Holland's eleventh album released worldwide in 2022, and was nominated for Best Contemporary Instrumental album in Europe. Not to be missed, this album is heartfelt, personal and engaging, and it sets a new bar for instrumental albums in the New Age and Contemporary Instrumental genres. Reviewers call him prolific, and they don't even know the half of it. Although he writes new material for each of his instrumental albums, he also has a personal backlog of hundreds of songs, both instrumental and vocal. Holland typically writes and records between the hours of Midnight and dawn's light, because there's less 'noise' during those hours and that helps him hear the music better. Regardless, that helps him produce singularly addictive melodies and soundscapes. Not your typical New Age music,the album includes everything from soft and romantic songs to intriguing and powerful.

“Holland Phillips must be regarded as one of the best multi-instrumentalists around today. He has a breathtaking ability to tie melodies and moods in an almost unique way.”
