Cam Hollohan has been writing songs and performing since he was in his early teens, more than half of his life, and in the last decade or so has emerged as a popular and frequent entertainer at bars, pubs, and events all over the Island. Born and raised in Cape Breton, he dabbles in many different genres but leans toward country and alternative rock. Cam released his first single, “The Final Blow”, in December 2023 followed by “Completed” in April 2024. Both are available on Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Spotify. Whatever he’s playing, he’ll have you tapping your toes and singing along!
