Brian Holland Brian Holland, having performed ragtime, jazz and stride piano for over 30 years, continues to be one of the most sought after artists in the country. Classically trained, but with a keen ear for improvisation, Brian’s approach to the piano is marked by a dynamic, driving style that has been described as clear as Waterford crystal. Beginning his musical existence at the age of three, Brian grew up living a “Ragtime Life.” His grandparents raised him to love all kinds of music; however, styles from the early 20th century became his passion. He quickly learned his way around an organ keyboard and had a repertoire of old standards that would shock most professionals - all before the age of six. It was then that he turned his attention to the piano.
