After developing an interest in music, Mack Holland began his music journey as early as childhood. Singing in neighborhood groups in his hometown of Aiken, South Carolina, his time spent alongside others with shared musical interests deeply inspired him. Entering teenagehood, his love for creative pursuits grew, and he began exploring poetry writing. It wasn’t long before A&R representatives caught a whiff of Holland’s immense passion-fueled talent. He was brought to Nashville, Tennessee, with encouragement to start recording the poetry he had converted into well-written, meaningful songs. During his collaboration with Paramount Studios, Holland recorded five starting songs; “Your Love Is A Thrill” “Love Me Now,” “All In My Mind,” “I Once Had You,” and “I Ain’t Got No Money Honey.” His bible-belt, southern roots planted a mustard seed of faith into Holland’s heart, which would soon grow into rich, God-trusting roots. Although raised in a Baptist church, he also attended catholic school for years, learning everything there was to know about faith and worship. These experiences helped shape his well-rounded ideas about religion. In 2017, his spirit was called to encounter a new beginning; the challenge of writing Gospel music. This task was something he hadn’t ever thought of trying, but it would soon alter his entire life and catapult him into spiritual enlightenment.
Holland’s studio representatives in Atlanta suggested that Grammy Award Winning producer Kevin Bond would be an immaculate fit for Holland’s potential Gospel music recordings. Upon meditating on the Lord, the lyrics came to him. “He Is,” discusses all the things that God is and the amazing blessings that his faith has done for him throughout his years as a songwriter. Holland’s original idea for the “He Is,” music video was to incorporate the scenery of water. However, the outcome of his collaboration with videographer (name), was bigger than anything either of them could have imagined.
Now residing in Augusta, Georgia, Mack Holland’s worship of the Lord continues with a brand new music video and Gospel song “Are You Ready For Your Blessing.” With introductory scenery of cotton-like clouds, and overhead shots of wide oceans sparkling in the sun, complimented by a flock of seagulls fluttering over many precious waves, this video is nothing short of a spiritual earworm. Holland preaches to his audience with ease and confidence. As well as a praise dance. As he walks up a flight of stairs, ascending into heaven, the audience recognizes this tune as none other than a Gospel song with elements perfectly suited for group dance. The faith-filled lyrics are hopeful, inspiring, and perfect for anyone battling discouragement or crisis. You will find yourself humming chorus lines “Are you ready, ready for your blessing,” after just one listen to this tune.
