Solon Holt has announced his debut album, Songs About You, due August 7th, with the title track out everywhere tonight. Signed vinyl, CDs, and merch are available for pre-order, and the album is available to pre-save, at his website.
In a message to fans accompanying the announcement on Instagram, Holt wrote: “My debut album, Songs About You, is yours on August 7. Thanks for being so patient while I spent the last two years working on this. I hope you love it.”
The album arrives during a busy stretch for the East Texas native. Earlier this year Holt released “Sad Country Songs,” his first release under his newly announced partnership with Trenches Records and Republic Records. He is also currently on the road supporting Megan Moroney on her Cloud 9 Tour, a sold-out arena run that kicked off May 29th in Columbus, Ohio and runs through August 22th at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville.
Holt grew up in East Texas in a musical family (his mother is a classical pianist and his father a blues musician) and began playing in a gospel band at age 14. He signed with UMPG Nashville in 2024 before inking his label deal with Trenches and Republic. His early singles “Right Where I Belong,” “Make Me Wonder,” and “East Texas and You” built a grassroots following ahead of the album.
Songs About You is out August 7th.
