One of Australia’s most beloved groups Holy Holy returns with a bold new single – ‘Messed Up’ featuring rapper Kwame – a song unlike anything they have released before.
The track arrives with a striking video directed by Claudia Sangiorgi Dalimore and is the first taste of Holy Holy’s forthcoming as-yet-untitled fifth album, which will feature surprise collaborations with an iconic Australian dance music duo, local and international hip hop artists, and more.
“At first we wondered, is this a Holy Holy song?” says Oscar Dawson, production whiz and multi-instrumentalist for the perennially buzzy, ARIA double platinum-certified act. “But once we finished making ‘Messed Up’ with Kwame, I think it was undeniable,” says Tim Carroll, Holy Holy singer and guitarist.
‘Messed Up’ is a daring move by the group. An arpeggiated synth floats under Kwame’s confessional lyrics before launching the track into a drum ‘n’ bass beast at 180 beats per minute.
Holy Holy first met Kwame while they were working in a Sydney studio on a different track with rising Australian rapper Tasman Keith. The interaction went so well, Dawson and Carroll sent him home with some instrumentals.
Less than 24 hours later, Kwame sent them his vocal ideas over an instrumental labelled ‘Messed Up’ – a song the pair had previously been unable to progress – and the single was born. “The synergy between the three of us was amazing,” beams Kwame.
Holy Holy will bring Kwame along for a national tour taking in capital cities and regional areas, along with previous collaborators Clews and upcoming artist Medhanit.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
