Hear songs from the heart in Long Beach Peninsula Arts Center hosts singer-songwriter Terry Holder LONG BEACH, Wash. — The Pen- insula Arts Center will present award-winning singer-song- writer Terry Holder at 7 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 23. Until 1999, Holder’s full- time job was being a stay-at- home mom. Her life changed when the youngest of her three daughters moved away, a tran- sition that coincided with the passing of her mother. Depres- sion settled in. Seeking solace, Holder reached for her guitar and began shifting her pain into writing music. 7KH ¿UVW VRQJ VKH SHQQHG became the title track for her 2001 debut CD “Am I Here Is This Me,” which was originally intended only as a keepsake for her daughters. The album of in- trospective songs started garner- ing sales and critical acclaim. It was followed by her second CD “Colored Rooms” and her third studio album “Ticket To The Moment,” both delivering emo- tionally driven songs with lyrics that take you on a journey with ÀDVKHV RI DEDQGRQ KHDUWEUHDN love, social and self-awareness. YOU R RESTAU RAN T Holder is touring as a duo in support of her new CD “Flow- ers at Midnight” performing at house concerts, festivals and venues around the country where she continues to build a loyal following. “If I can touch one person with a song, then I feel that I’ve accomplished something great in my life,” she says. “Anything is possible. It’s never to late to do what you’re inspired to do or what you’re passionate about, you just have to start.” Holder won the 2013 Wild- ÀRZHU 6RQJZULWLQJ &RPSHWL- tion in Richardson, Texas, was DVHPL¿QDOLVWLQWKH,QWHU- national Songwriting Competi- tion and has been selected four times as a Kerrville New Folk Finalist at the Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas.
