Holly Mae Heinrich (born March 31, 1994), better known by her stage name Holly Henry, is an American singer/songwriter from Minnetonka, Minnesota. She took her stage name when competing in Season 5 of the reality singing show ''The Voice''. ==Life and career== Henry is the daughter of Marc Heinrich, a musician and worship director and Becky Heinrich, an art teacher and graphic artist. She attended public schools in the Minneapolis area and graduated from Hopkins High School. While in high school, Henry sang in a sandwich shop gig and posted covers of songs on her Hollymaezers YouTube video channel. While taking a gap year before college, Henry's parents encouraged her to audition for The Voice at a Chicago, Illinois audition in January, 2013. Henry advanced through the open call and subsequent executive auditions and participated in The Voice boot camp during the summer of 2013. Her Blind Audition performance of ''The Scientist'' got all four chairs to turn and was (as of July 25, 2014) in the all-time Top 40 for views of The Voice Performances on YouTube.〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsmrggvmzG0&list=UUpdK1NLHxEUGXc1gq2NxkTw〕 In the Battle Rounds, she was pitted against Cilla Chan, singing ''Torn.'' Henry and Chan were montaged (their vocal performances were not shown in full) and Henry was chosen to move on. In the Knockout Round she went up against Nic Hawk, singing ''Creep'' by Radiohead. She was sent home, and NBC's The Voice (US) subsequently lost 15% (1.5 million) viewers after that episode. Henry's continued popularity after her international exposure on The Voice is reflected by over 217,000 subscribers to her Hollymaezers YouTube Channel and over 18,100 followers on SoundCloud (as of November 1, 2015). She was voted #5 in the 2014 "Battle of the IDF It Girls, The Voice vs. American Idol" competition on Idolforums, which hosts discussion and fan threads for reality show contestants. Simultaneous with the finale for season 5 of The Voice, Henry released her first EP called ''The Immigrant''.〔http://idolforums.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=706360&view=findpost&p=26061147〕 The 5 track EP peaked on iTunes at #6 on both the US Pop and Rock Charts, the same position it attained in pre-release. On April 7, 2014, Henry won second place in the RyanSeacrest.com top cover competition for her rendition of the hit song ''Say Something''. Third place finisher Jamison Murphy later featured Henry on his single "Remember When." On May 6, 2014, the Grow Music Project released Session Diaries #4, a video on the Christopher Tyng led production of Henry Henry's single ''Hide and Seek'', which was released simultaneously on iTunes. ''Hide and Seek'' is the soundtrack for the closing credits of the short film ''Escapement'', written and produced by Erik A. Candiani.〔http://vimeo.com/98597761〕 Henry collaborated with Candiani on the KARE11 (Minneapolis TV station) promo for the Kocci Winter Olympics, which was subsequently nominated for two Upper Midwestern Emmy awards, with a win for best Musical Arrangement/Composition. Henry performed at the Winter's Over Music Festival on April 25, 2015. Her Indiegogo funded second EP, The Orchard, was released on August 21, 2015. Musician Josh J. Dobson publicly announced his engagement to Henry on March 7, 2014.〔http://idolforums.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=706360&view=findpost&p=26177576〕 (FDRMX ) writer (John Mychal Feraren ) reviewed Holly Henry's single "Grow." He said that "the real standout in the song is the impeccable songwriting skills of Holly. She was able to establish such lyrical depth in 'Grow' that fully matches her naturally silky tone." Music Historian guest blogger Gary Reese reviewed The Orchard EP and said "the EP represents a sophisticated evolution of Holly’s musical talent, combined with a remarkable collaborative achievement by producer and backup instrumentalist Matt Patrick." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Holly Henry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
