Malcolm Holcombe has been writing and playing music for over twenty-five years. His major label debut, A Hundred Lies, received four stars in Rolling Stone and was dubbed a debut with "timeless appeal." Originally from the western hills of North Carolina, Malcolm descended on Nashville like a tornado, bringing his soon to be legendary style of singing and playing to a town where country had always been king. Critics flocked to the Bluebird Café to see this new type of singer/songwriter, and soon Nashville’s Music Row embraced Holcombe with vigor. Malcolm was cited by music historians shortly after as “the most important and influential songwriter in 30 years.” Holcombe eventually joined a prestigious list of songwriters on Bug Music Publishing’s roster. It was through Bug that Malcolm met J. Steven Soles, the man who would soon produce Malcolm’s major label debut album, A Hundred Lies, for Geffen Records. The album was called “a singer/songwriter debut with timeless appeal” and given 4 stars by Rolling Stone’s senior music editor, David Fricke. Malcolm’s songs are fables, sometimes startling and at other times tender, always lying flawlessly within his fervent and addictive melodies. His voice...arresting, gravelly and soulful. Holcombe landed high profile supporting positions on tours with Shelby Lynne and Cat Power as well as opening slots in NYC for such acts as John Hammond, Merle Haggard and even Wilco. He mesmerized audiences one show at a time and soon developed a large enough fan base to tour the country on his own. Malcolm Holcombe is now considered a legendary staple performer throughout the Southeast. His songs have caught the ears of many within the music business, from acoustic roots producers, popular country crossover artists, to an extensive list of public and college radio stations throughout the country. His songs are timeless and his performance, mesmerizing. He is excited to bring his unique voice and virtuosic guitar playing to Uncommon Ground. |
