Holly Clausius is a queer Toronto-based singer-songwriter blending soulful indie pop artist with hints of glam rock and heartfelt storytelling. Known for her magnetic stage presence and powerhouse vocals, Holly’s music channels the emotional honesty of Amy Winehouse, the campy flair of David Bowie, and the anthemic energy of Florence + The Machine. Her sophomore album Petal Pusher bloomed in 2025, weaving together themes of heartbreak, self-discovery, and queer joy through a lush soundscape and soaring melodies. Holly’s live shows are a vibrant mix of colour, camp, and catharsis—whether she’s fronting her full band or performing in drag as one of Toronto’s most dynamic queer artists. Having performed at Canadian Music Week, NXNE, TIFF, and Pride Toronto, Holly continues to carve her place in Canada’s indie scene as an unapologetically authentic voice. Her songs, like “Bad at Making Friends” and “Too Many Times” resonate with anyone who’s ever felt like too much or not enough. Catch her at her next show and experience the mix of glitter, grit, and pure talent that defines Holly Clausius.
