Let’s Eat Grandma’s Jenny On Holiday Announces Solo Album

      Jenny On Holiday has announced her debut solo album titled ‘Quicksand Heart.’

      This new endeavor marks Jenny Hollingworth's reintroduction, having spent nearly a decade creating music as one-half of the avant-pop duo Let’s Eat Grandma.

      The Mercury-nominated group boasts a unique and captivating sound, but the solo project of Jenny On Holiday brings the songwriter back to her foundational creative principles.

      Returning her focus to her voice, the songs are straightforward yet retain a polished 80s production style while reflecting the literate storytelling reminiscent of Prefab Sprout, for instance.

      Written during the summer in her hometown of Norwich, the forthcoming album was completed in London with producer Steph Marziano.

      Her recent single ‘Every Ounce Of Me’ showcased her aspirations, and Jenny On Holiday continues her narrative with the release of ‘Dolphins.’

      Available now, ‘Dolphins’ sees the singer exploring the pop song format and expanding its boundaries to a space where she feels more at ease. Jenny expresses:

      “I’m thrilled by the pop format—being able to convey something emotionally intricate within this straightforward, accessible medium…”

      She further shares:

      “I used to have this sensation that everyone possessed hearts made from different materials—and I felt that mine was somewhat flawed. I sense that my heart and mind are crafted from the wrong elements. That imagery represents a desire to be loved, to love, and to live as a human being does, even if you feel like the Tinman from The Wizard of Oz.”

Few artists encapsulate the emotional range of modern club culture like salute. Born in Vienna and now based in Manchester, this producer has been acclaimed for a sound that seamlessly blends joy and sorrow, touring globally with music that resonates just as powerfully on a bustling dancefloor as in the serene aftermath. With each release, they have established a space where happiness, vulnerability, and community thrive together in an ongoing journey. Following the success of their 2024 album ‘TRUE MAGIC’, a luminous collaborative project that captured the essence of connection through music, salute's next step feels both natural and visionary. The release of their own ‘fabric presents’ compilation marks a significant milestone in their transition from emerging producer to a prominent voice in contemporary club music. This compilation reflects salute at a moment of complete creative clarity, channeling years of late nights, shared dance experiences, and emotional ties into a singular, cohesive expression. Confident and engaged, the new mix highlights the music that has shaped their journey, featuring a blend of hidden treasures perfect for the club alongside timeless, genre-defying classics. In a conversation with CLASH, salute discusses the spiritual significance of the club, the responsibility of representing an evolving scene, and the challenge of capturing fleeting, collective magic in a single, enduring mix for fabric. — — How did you initially become involved in music? It all began with my family; we regularly attended church. I spent thirteen years going to a West African Pentecostal church every Sunday, constantly surrounded by music. My parents played a diverse array of genres at home, including reggae, gospel, R&B, soul, and funk. My older brother, who's quite a bit older than me (he was a teen in the ’90s), introduced me to a lot of hip-hop and R&B, and I would sit on his bed absorbing it all. He helped shape my musical taste. By the time I turned 10, I discovered electronic music through video games like Street and SSX on Tour. By 13, I became obsessed with electronic music production and started using a cracked version of FL Studio. What was your experience living in Brighton, and how did it shape your music? Brighton was the first place outside of Austria that I lived in, where I also made many lasting friendships. I spent a lot of time exploring new music on my own. It was when I first encountered club culture—going to places like Concorde2, Patterns (previously Audio), and The Arch, and experiencing The Great Escape. It opened my eyes to the wide variety of music available. I recall my first grime night in 2014 at Concorde with Elijah & Skilliam, Novelist, and others. It was such a vibrant time in the club scene before everyone started filming on their phones. I also met my current manager, Luke, there. Brighton had an amazing community and played a significant role in my formative years in club culture. How does it feel to return to venues in Brighton that you frequented as a clubber? I haven’t performed in Brighton for a while, but when I do, it’s always fascinating to see how the city evolves over time. As a major student city, witnessing the growth of young people's tastes is incredible. It feels nostalgic to revisit the Lanes and relive my student days. Where did you first truly feel free to express yourself? The UK, particularly Manchester, is where I felt liberated to be myself. Coming from Austria, which is more conservative, the cultural diversity of the UK allowed me to explore my identity and become who I wanted to be. There are few countries in Europe that offer such diversity. Manchester has been immensely important to me; I’ve lived here for nearly a decade, almost my entire adult life. I regard it as the city that shaped me. What are your thoughts on releasing a Fabric mix? It reinforces your position within club music... To be honest, I’m just thrilled and eager to move on from my previous work, specifically the last album. I thoroughly enjoyed creating ‘TRUE MAGIC’ and performing it, but at my core, I remain someone who loves dance and club music. I want listeners to experience the broad spectrum of music that has influenced my production and DJ style, so I’m genuinely excited. With club season starting again and longer sets returning, it also feels refreshing to showcase new talent, which is what I aim to do with this compilation. What was your process for curating the Fabric mix? For me, it was about figuring out how to fit a lot of dance music I love into one hour. I’m drawn to Deep House, French House, and Chicago House, along with hard groove sounds. I aimed to incorporate many of my dance music interests into an hour-long mix, gradually building the tempo like a DJ set. I wanted it to resemble a club experience, often blending two tracks simultaneously. There were certain tracks that had to be included, like the Kerri Chandler piece and Sedat
