Holly seeks record deal for debut album

The 14-year-old KwaZulu-Natal singer/songwriter Holly is looking for the best possible record deal for a national release of her debut album, "Strawberry Skies".

Aiding her in this is Sony/ATV Music Publishing in South Africa, which signed Holly to a publishing deal earlier this year.

"Strawberry Skies" was produced by Marciano Rebelo Monjane, a Mozambican musician who previously worked with Peter Gabriel's Real World label.

Siyabonga Madiba

Among the outstanding tracks on her debut is Siyabonga Madiba, which Holly has turned into a great live track when playing live with her band.

Just recently, the song proved deeply moving with the 3000 people attending the Moral Regeneration Movement's 2010 meeting in Stanger, attended by Deputy President Kgalema Motlanthe.
