Johnny Hollow is a Canadian band based in Guelph, Ontario, whose dark blend of electronic and orchestral sounds has been described as Gothic chamber music for the 21st century (Liisa Ladouceur, Rue Morgue Magazine). Their sound is a lush mix of electronica/exocotica/gothic/classical with an emphasis on keyboards, cellos, and voices (Fiend magazine, Australia, Ron Sawyer).
A short list of quotes about JH:
Johnny Hollow the hauntingly beautiful trio of Kitty Thompson, Vincent Marcone, and Janine White, may be one of Indie musics best kept secrets - stashed away in their own little Pandoras box, where they like it nice and cozy and full of creative freedom and unbridled expressionism. (B&E Productions, 03/04)
Its dark, its heavy (not in a Metal way, but heavy nonetheless) its sometimes uplifting, and at other times, deeply oppressive. The main vocals come from Janine, who has one of the most angelic ghostly voices Ive ever heard (Urptsukidojis Pad webzine, Ontario, Feb 2004 Jeff Richardson)
This woman [Kitty] shows no respect whatsoever for whats supposed to be done with the cello and its just lovely! (Andreas Nilsson, Moving Hands Music Magazine, Stockholm, Sweden May 2004)
Johnny Hollow isnt only about music. The visual side is equally important. With sounds and images they paint their tales about madness and passion. Their website is pure visual extravaganza. (Funprox Webzine, Netherlands 02/04, Hans D).
Johnny Hollow. An artistic treasure trove, the music and artwork perfectly entwined, a group of people focused on atmosphere above all else. (Obskure webzine, Paris, France)
About the live show: intensely beautiful and uniquely macabre (Anna Fleet, audience member).
A wonderful head-f*k. Listen in Safety. (Nash the Slash, Jan 2005)
