More good news is on the way.   Check out these great reviews!   "After the Fall" (M.C.

He received a Grammy in 2010 for his work on Mavis'  "You Are Not Alone," produced by Jeff Tweedy (of Wilco). Rick has a bunch of solo dates in the LA area and continues leading Mavis Staples band.   Coming up with an original instrumental group voice is as hard as finding one’s own guitar style, but Holmstrom (and band) succeed in both respects  Vintage Guitar   Rick Holmstrom is just too talented and restrained to release anything less than professionally crafted. All Music Guide   Each track is blissfully inventive. Holmstrom creates a blues that is effortless to vibe to. Where Y'At   Rick Holmstrom is booked by M.C.
