Harrison Hollingquest releases Southern Soul hit "Country Girl"
Harrison Hollingquest, a soulful voice hailing from Birmingham, Alabama, brings a powerful blend of Soul, R&B, and Blues to the music scene. Drawing inspiration from legendary artists such as Johnnie Taylor, Bobby Womack, Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke, Smokey Robinson, and B.B. King, he crafts music that resonates deeply with emotion, storytelling, and authenticity. His latest single, “Country Girl,” is a tribute to the strength, beauty, and independence of women from the countryside. The creative process behind “Country Girl" was driven by a desire to highlight the unique qualities of country women—those who are “cornbread-fed,” strong-willed, independent, and deeply devoted in their relationships. The song uplift these women by showcasing their confidence. Whether through their ability to bring people together in social settings, express themselves through line dancing, or turn heads with their presence, the song serves as a celebration of their spirit.
Like many independent artists, Harrison has faced significant challenges in his journey, from finding the right connections to ensuring his music reaches the right audience. However, his biggest breakthrough came through the support of his late cousin, Drea C, whose guidance kept him grounded in an industry that can often be unforgiving. His gratitude also extends to SRJR Productions and his supporters—Sweet Lou, Lady D, and Chay (Butta Baby) Crews—who continuously inspire him to push his creative boundaries. Their encouragement fuels his passion for storytelling through music. “Country Girl” is more than just a song; it’s a statement. It celebrates the intelligence and grace of country women.
Harrison Hollingquest recently brought his music to life on stage at the Big 251Music Presents: Western Birthday Bash on February 22, 2025. The event, held at the Social Entertainment Event Center in Mobile, Alabama, provided the perfect backdrop for him to connect with fans and showcase his deep-rooted passion for Soul, R&B, and Blues.
