Holiday Mountain

Biography

Holiday Mountain is an electronic music duo founded by Mexican-American songwriter/keyboardist Laura Patiño and drummer/producer Zander Kagle. The two met in Boston while attending Berklee College of Music and together found a genre-expanding sound, fusing together their affinity for electronic music, hip-hop, and pop to create a force so strong. When describing their sound, NPR exclaimed “resistance is futile.”

“After witnessing their atomic live set, you’ll be rendered breathless,” says SPIN magazine, who also named the band one of their favorite things from SXSW 2015. “Make sure to watch to the end” urges The Wall Street Journal, as audience members are regularly exposed to glittery crowd surfing, sweaty drum solos, and being fed cake until they reach “a cacophonous climax.” (SPIN)
