Artist Biography
Available in:
"Holly Audrey Williams" (born March 12, 1981) is an American country music artist. Raised in Nashville, Tennessee, she is the granddaughter of Hank Williams, Sr., the daughter of Hank Williams, Jr., and the half-sister of Hank Williams III. Holly's mother, Becky, is a native of Mer Rouge, Louisiana, and was married for ten years to Hank Williams, Jr. She was born in Cullman, Alabama, and has an elder sister named Hilary. Her parents separated when she was young. At age 17, Holly began playing one of her father's guitars, and soon began writing songs.
Williams graduated from Brentwood Academy and decided to pursue her passion of songwriting and continue playing guitar and piano. She bought her domain name, recorded an ep, started a website, and booked herself all over Nashville clubs. Soon after signing with CAA, she performed many shows throughout the US and usually toured alone with a guitar and keyboard driving her mother's suburban across the country. She went to the UK to open for songwriter Ron Sexsmith with a backpack full of ep's and a guitar.
In March 2006, Williams was injured in a near-fatal car crash with her sister and canceled her upcoming tour. Her sister was critically injured, endured over 29 surgeries and the family remained near her side. Holly's right arm and wrist were broken, she was unsure of when she would play again. She wrote "Without Jesus Here With Me" about her experience during the time of the car accident, it was released on her next record. Holly's sister, Hilary Williams, wrote a book called "Sign of Life" about her tragic experience.
