ABOUT THIS HOLIDAY LIFE
There is an often-forgotten place where desperate desire for truth romances both the raw and intricate elements of Rock and Roll. It is there where you'll find the inspiration behind This Holiday Life.

The band was formed in early 2003 by Scott Anderson (Voices, Guitars), Bobby Anderson (Bass Guitar, Keys), Mark Nagel (Drums), and Joe Freeman (Lead Guitar, Keys). Based in San Diego the four began playing together locally and quickly started writing songs for their first record, The Fallout. Released in 2004, this 6-song EP showcases the aggressive and captivating talent of the band and was nominated for "Best Rock Album Of The Year" at the 2004 San Diego Music Awards. Taking to the road, T.H.L. began securing a reputable local and West Coast following.

Summer 2004 put This Holiday Life on their first national tour introducing them to the better part of the Midwest and East Coast. Added as tour support for Switchfoot and Copeland their fan-base began to grow exponentially as their live stage show matured into one that would ignite passion in the hearts of many. By the end of the year the band had independently sold 5000 copies of The Fallout, all-the-while capturing the attention of both independent and major labels.

Early 2005 brought plans for a new full-length record, and another summer run with Switchfoot down the East Coast. Once again nominated for a San Diego Music Award, this time "Best Rock Group Of The Year," it became clear that T.H.L. was making a lasting impression on their hometown. The band began to write both on and off the road, compiling over 50 new songs for the upcoming recording. The result is FRICTION, the 14-song glimpse into the inner workings of the This Holiday Life. Both moody and engaging, this release presents the deeper and more intimate side of T.H.L. True to form, it delivers both inspiring energy as well as introspective and contemplative rock. Pleasing existing T.H.L. fans, Friction is undoubtedly stealing the hearts of the rest of the world as well.

Intoxicating melodies and purposeful lyrics are the oils with which Scott paints the musical portrait. His easily distinguishable voice captivates listeners, while his musical poetry challenges them to ignite with an unquenchable passion for truth. Bobby, Mark, and Joe bring life to the music by weaving the canvas on which the story we are all a part of is told..the story of this life...this holiday life.

Live.Love.Dream.
