Solon Holt has inked with Trenches Records and Republic Records.

The Tyler, Texas native began playing in a gospel band at 14 before relocating to Nashville. Inspired by the sounds of Norah Jones, John Mayer, James Taylor, Donny Hathaway and Carole King, Holt began releasing music in 2024. He will support Megan Moroney on her “Cloud 9 Tour,” which kicks off later this month.

“I feel fortunate to watch a very special person take his first steps towards true artistry,” shares Trenches Records’ Tom LaScola. “He has challenged himself along the way to create the most accurate representation of who he is at this point in his life. I couldn’t be more excited to help get this art into the world with our team.”

“We are thrilled to welcome Solon Holt to the Republic family,” adds Republic Records Chairman and CEO Jim Roppo. “His artistry, passion, and creative vision are incredibly inspiring, and we’re excited to begin this journey together and see all that’s ahead.”

In celebration, Holt has released his newest single, “Sad Country Songs.”

“‘Sad Country Songs’ is a bridge between who I was and who I’m becoming,” he shares. “Somewhere along the way, I realized I was saying goodbye to the world that raised me creatively. The song is still deeply informed by country music, but it no longer feels confined by it. It’s both an ode to country music and a quiet farewell to the version of myself that lived entirely inside it. What’s left now is simply: me.”
