Adam Holiday has a plethora of experience in the music industry. His passion for music can be traced back to his younger years, surrounded by his musical family who helped him harness his ability to become a musician. By the age of only 17, he had secured his first residency, and was touring some of Johannesburg’s biggest clubs on the circuit. Since then, he has had releases on 99 Waves, Shoefiti, Solid Grooves, Suma and Enjoy It Productions. We caught up with Adam for a quickfire interview.
