Hollyn – ‘One-Way Conversations’ album review

Propelled by the momentum of a tour with TobyMac and a Dove Award nomination in the “New Artist” category, Hollyn kicks up her brand of energetic, R&B-infused dance pop with diary-like honesty yet another notch. The singer-songwriter’s full-length debut, One-Way Conversations (buy), covers the gamut of relationships, aspirations and applying faith to her decision-making process in the generally exciting but unpredictable music biz. But as Hollyn proves on this bright and memorable coming of age collection, which even includes collaborations with TobyMac, Andy Mineo and fellow newcomer Steven Malcolm, chances are she’ll have no trouble navigating her way into ongoing artistic relevance and relatability.
