Holman has one of the finest tenor voices ever to emerge from Philadelphia, and his rich soaring falsetto, the signature of the Holman persona always strikes new highs. 

Eddie Holman is a very special soul stylist, a singer about whom British writer, Tony Cummings has said: “Eddie Holman’s voice, an astonishing precision instrument which can leap octaves with the speed of mercury and bend notes into shapes unimagined by lesser singers, has assured its possessor a place in soul history.” 

Holman has typical soul singer roots; singing gospel in church beginning at age two. Born of musical family in Norfolk, Virginia, he was inspired and taught to sing by his mother, learned piano and guitar and wrote some original songs. Then New York beckoned and he moved north at age five. Says Eddie, “that’s where I gained my first exposure to show business.” 

Eddie attended Victoria School of Music and Art in New York City. As “Little Eddie Homan”, he appeared in Off-Broadway shows, concerts at Carnegie Hall and was a regular on NBC-TV’s “The Children’s Hour” and, he won amateur shows at the Apollo Theatre. 

He moved to The City of Music, Philadelphia. This turning point was the beginning of a new career. Eddie wrote, produced and recorded in Philadelphia while attending Overbrook High School. Success as a recording artist came with his first national release while still a freshman at Cheyney State University.
