Vlad Holiday

About this show

Vlad Holiday plays Ruins, a 200-capacity small room in Deep Ellum, on Thursday, July 1. The show starts at 8 PM. This one could sell out: big draw for a room this size (169k listeners, 200 capacity). Vlad Holiday also has 10 other dates on Go See Shows, in Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Chicago and Minneapolis.

Part crooner, part producer, part musical degenerate, Vlad Holiday makes records for people who delete and reinstall Instagram. In a world where thousands of over-produced, AI-laden songs get uploaded to streaming services every day, Holiday’s human-forward sound blends his smoky vocals with tape hiss, 60s guitars, 90s hip-hop beats and 808 sub bass. He lives somewhere between a European nightclub and a 3 am bender in a city that stopped being romantic years ago. Since launching his project in 2017 in DIY venues all around New York City, lo-fi indie artist Vlad Holiday steadily built an audience on his own terms.
