About Beth:
At the age of 4 my dad was a music producer and put headphones on my head and said “sing what you hear” so I did.  That started my singing career.  I started by singing on a local TV program called The Country Boy Eddie Show that is where Tammy Wynette, Wendy Holcomb just to name a few got their start. Then I had the chance to audition for Opryland Theme Park and was fired for lying about my age.  Dottie West took me under her wing and showed me what being on the road was all about. I have had the pleasure of singing with who are now known as some of country music's biggest legends.

 

 Feb 2019 I woke up, looked at my husband and said “I am going back into show business”. He replied with a “Hot Damn”. When I came home he had purchased everything needed for a home studio.  I started to practice then I came across a writer Marty Dodson, Stephen and Carlos Battey who wrote my release “Bail Money”   Then I called up a friend that I had known for 20 years Brendan Fitzpatrick (formerly known as Magic Red and the VooDoo Tribe) he was deemed the best guitar player by the king himself Stevie Ray Vaughn he created the music with Anton Fig (drummer for David Letterman Band) Stu Hamm world renown bassist, Lucus Wolk who played the banjo, Jeff Kalemba did the mixing and mastering in New Jersey.

 

The vocals, organ, and piano were recorded by Grammy Winner Randy Kohrs owner of Slack Key Studio in Nashville.  Piano and organ were both played by Josh Shilling and the incredible background singing was done by the one and only Vicki Carrico (background singer for Dottie West and Brenda Lee).  She did a 6 part harmony like nobody else could.  I am so thankful and honored to have had all of these fabulous world class musicians and Grammy winning engineers to have made this record with me and I will forever be grateful to them and for them being placed in my life!  Music is the most healing medicine you can ever have. It gets you dancing, smiling, singing and turns those frowns upside down!!!

"It was an honor to sing Happy Birthday to Willie Nelson, and an even greater honor to perform with him on stage. I was just starting out in my music career, and to have a legend like Willie take me under his wing means the world to me. It is a memory that I will cherish forever." -Beth Holli

Biscay ft. Hattie Whitehead

 


Biscay comprise 4 jazz/funk/prog instrumentalists who write songs about the human condition set to a dizzying range of genres. Using a range of vocalists (chosen to suit each song), this is a deliberately diverse formula. It’s a formula which seems to work given Biscay are 2-time winners of the UK Songwriting Competition (amongst others – see Awards page on our website https://biscay.co.uk/awards/). We have released 8 new songs as singles since October 2024 into 2025 and The Joy Of Missing Out is our 9th such release.

Biscay’s first EP release was ‘Burnt Mementos‘ in April 2017, followed by a second EP ‘Stare At The Sun’ in March 2020. Through the pandemic lockdowns a further 5 singles were released. All are available on Spotify and all other main streaming platforms.

Released on International Day of Happiness (March 20th), The Joy Of Missing Out (JOMO) proposes an alternative to FOMO. It suggests our suffering comes from trying to fit in, complying with social norms, and acquiring unnecessary material things we think will make us happier. Instead, there’s a joy to be had by ignoring it all. Socrates would have applauded. A deliberately joyful, funky groove seemed appropriate with (we hope) a truly uplifting chorus. The song features the fabulous Hattie Whitehead on vocals.

The Joy Of Missing Out lyrics:

Can’t see why we have this need to comply

Think you’ll win if you just try to fit in, fit in

Well,got to say it’s not the way,

Get off main drag zig while the others zag, they zag

The joy of missing out, every fad you do without

The joy of missing out, calm the voice that used to shout

The joy of missing out, beat your own path have no doubt

Can’t presume you’re better off to consume, smash the loom

Just defy each evil corporate lie, deny...

The thought that stuff fulfils your needs

Take a tip from good old Socrates, he pleads...

The joy of missing out, every fad you do without

The joy of missing out, calm the voice that used to shout

The joy of missing out, beat your own path have no doubt

What you own don’t make you feel less alone

Debts and loans they turn us all into drones, unknowns

Dodge the mall, ignore it all

Skip the queues and bask in what you choose, you can’t lose

The joy of missing out...do without

The joy of missing out, calm the voice that used to shout

The joy of missing out, beat your own path have no doubt
