ABOUT HOLOS

HOLOS MULTIMEDIA BUILDS CAREER INFRASTRUCTURE FOR MUSIC ARTISTS
We create technology, experiences, education, and resources designed to help artists navigate their careers with greater access to opportunities, knowledge, community, and support.
Artists are expected to create the work and run the business behind it. Holos exists to help connect the pieces so artists can spend less time figuring everything out alone and more time building sustainable careers.
WE'RE BUILDING A MUSIC INDUSTRY WHERE CREATIVITY & WELLNESS CAN COEXIST.
WHY HOLOS EXISTS
Artists don't stop being people when they step into a studio or onto a stage.
Behind the music are careers, finances, relationships, health, responsibilities, goals, and lives that all affect an artist's ability to keep creating.
That's why Holos approaches career development holistically—connecting creativity, wellness, education, ownership, community, and opportunity rather than treating them as separate parts of an artist's life.
We're not interested in helping artists simply become more visible. We want to help them build careers they can sustain.
THE ART MATTERS. SO DOES THE ARTIST.

ONE MISSION. DIFFERENT WAYS TO SUPPORT THE ARTIST


Navigate Your Career
AI-powered career assistance connecting artists with opportunities, people, resources, and next steps.
Experience Music Together
Recorded live music experiences bringing artists and audiences together through music, culture, food, and connection.
Build Your Knowledge
Practical education and resources to help artists understand the business behind their creativity.
Support the Whole Artist
The nonprofit arm expanding access to wellness, education, community, and artist support.
Together, these initiatives allow Holos to address different parts of the same challenge: helping artists build healthier, more sustainable creative careers.
MEET THE FOUNDER

Deannah "DRIPP" Blemur
Founder by Experience. Artist at Heart.
Deannah Blemur is a performing artist, writer, actor, and entrepreneur building Holos from firsthand experience navigating the challenges facing independent creatives.
Her journey began in church, where she developed her love for singing, vocal arranging, and creative expression. She later co-led S.O.A.R. Ministries, organizing programs, fundraisers, benefit concerts, and conferences centered on young-adult development while earning her bachelor's degree in Communications from Regis College.
After deciding to pursue music professionally, Deannah experienced the other side of artistry: finding opportunities, learning the business, promoting herself, financing her work, building relationships, and developing a career while working full-time.
Those experiences became the foundation for Holos.
Rather than separating her work as an artist from her work as a founder, Deannah continues to create and perform as DRIPP, bringing the experience of building her own creative career directly into the products, programs, and experiences Holos develops.
