KELI HOLIDAY AND ALEX CAMERON

 

COLLABORATE ON JOINT SINGLE

 

“ONLINE JESUS”

 

OUT NOW

 


October 3rd, 2024 - Today, celebrated Australian artists Keli Holiday and Alex Cameron are thrilled to release their joint single, “Online Jesus”, available now across music platforms.

“This track was one of the first ideas Alex and I worked on together,” explains Keli Holiday (aka Adam Hyde). “We laid in a scratch melody on the bassline and the guitar lead, then came back the next day and we were speaking about the state of modern love and dating apps. The online Jesuses who believe they are god’s gift to women sent from the internet to be the rapture and savior for those women longing for a partner… A far cry from the truth.”

Described by Holiday as a “brit pop, synth pop tangerine nightmare on ecstasy”, “Online Jesus” follows on from Keli Holiday’s JESTERMAN EP release earlier this year, which featured singles ‘disco’, ‘lowdown’ and the rapturous ‘doyoulikeitornot’, all crowd favorites at his recent sweat-soaked headline shows.

"Online Jesus" combines Keli’s infectious punk-pop sound with Alex’s signature indie flair, encapsulating the emotional rollercoaster of modern romance. The song’s lyrics shine a light on the pitfalls of seeking genuine connections in an era dominated by social media and dating apps. The track sees Alex Cameron and Keli Holiday showcase playful vocals over an infectious melody in a colorful fusion of electro pop and rock.

 

KELI HOLIDAY BIO

 

The Keli Holiday project was created by Adam Hyde (one half of multi ARIA award winning, 10x platinum selling Australian duo Peking Duk) who had come off the back of a 2 month North American tour with back to back dates. 

He was told he had time for a holiday when he got home but instead of flying to a beach somewhere he decided to use an old guitar he had sitting in his bedroom to create something special. 

Two years later and the marriage of longing for that holiday he'll never get back mixed with the strumming of that dusty old guitar birthed a love child named Keli Holiday.

ALEX CAMERON BIO

 

Alex Cameron is an Australian singer-songwriter from Sydney. He is best known for his solo career, a high-concept act in which Cameron initially adopted the persona of a failed entertainer. 

 

The shimmering star of Alex Cameron continues to shine bright from the gutters of show business four albums into his prolific career as an entertainer. And yet, people still have questions. Is he really 6 ft 4 inches tall? Why do none of his suits fit him properly? If he really is Australian, then why does he speak in a strange sort of European world news accent?

 

While the answers to these questions may or may not be of any interest to anybody - there they remain - shot into the sky like flares as red hot as the notes from his business partner and horn player Roy Molloy's alto saxophone.
