After 30 years in the music biz, and memorable run-ins with Oasis and Chris Kirkpatrick, Steve Holt is back doing what he loves.
There's but a handful of musicians in Dallas who have shared the experiences Steve Holt has. Throughout his 30-year-long musical career, Holt has had the privilege of signing with a major record label, opening for The Strokes in New York City and getting cussed out by Liam Gallagher after playing with Oasis. He’s also toured with the Dave Matthews Band and written songs for a member of NSYNC — while somehow finding time to raise a family and become a science teacher.
Holt’s projects have always had a signature sound, usually involving an element of psychedelic, and an angular pastiche of surprises through melodic juxtapositions. I Love You is comparable to the less commercialized, even underground groups of the ’90s and early aughts. Fans of Spiritualized, Placebo and Violent Femmes would find the band a refreshing addition to the Dallas music scene.
The band plans to intermittently release the rest of the full-length album throughout the year, single by single, until they press the collection to vinyl. Unlike most start-up bands opening up at Double Wide or CheapSteaks, in the fall of 2023, I Love You threw an over-the-top, open-bar, fully catered launch party at the super-hip LERMA advertising agency overlooking downtown Dallas.
Even though the notoriously naughty English bad boy of '90’s rock pulled his signature shenanigans, Holt fondly remembers the show for how well Tablet was received by Oasis fans. “Basically, I was ready to do something different,” Holt says. “I was doing a whole new style of music and signed a deal with Last Beat Records. That project became OHNO.”
Holt’s firsthand knowledge of the inner workings of the music business is a great help when navigating today's complicated playing field. I Love You’s approach to building a loyal fanbase, releasing a steady stream of music and maintaining their buzz seems to be working as Holt’s live shows are once again on the trajectory to local greatness. The musician’s only hesitation about today’s music scene centers around the perceived value of the art itself.
