KiKi Holli & The Remedy – Wish
Los Angeles indie-pop vocalist and songwriter KiKi Holli returns with her latest single “WISH,” the first release under her expanded artist title KiKi Holli & The Remedy.
This evolution marks a new creative chapter for Holli— one that captures the dynamic energy of her live performances while staying true to the emotive storytelling and lush, cinematic sound she’s known for. The addition of “& The Remedy” reflects Holli’s growing focus on live performance and collaboration, capturing the vibrant, soulful energy of her band on stage and working with her 2x Grammy nominated Producer, Ethan Allen in the studio.
“WISH” is an atmospheric, soulful anthem that explores longing, transformation, and the beauty of vulnerability. Driven by sweeping melodies and Holli’s radiant, emotionally charged vocals, the track evokes a sense of yearning and renewal, channeling the timeless influences of artists like Stevie Nicks, Bowie, Prince & The Cure through a modern indie-pop lens. It’s both intimate and anthemic—a reflection of Holli’s continued growth as an artist and the powerful synergy of The Remedy.
The new single follows the success of Holli’s electrifying Nu Disco track “WIN U OVER,” which earned critical praise from Billboard for its infectious groove and fearless energy. With “WIN U OVER,” Holli invited listeners to embrace joy, connection, and movement—a vibrant contrast to the introspective tone of “WISH,” yet both driven by her signature authenticity.
Before that, Holli released the dance anthem “PRETTY BOYS,” an LGBTQ+ favorite celebrating self-expression, allure, and empowerment. Known for her powerful vocals and emotionally charged writing, Holli’s catalog spans from the blissful “NEW HIGH” to the cinematic “Play to Lose” and “Sun Playing Tricks,” each track revealing new facets of her artistry.
Holli first captured hearts with her stunning rendition of Roxy Music’s “More Than This,” a song that mirrored her personal journey through grief and healing. Since then, she’s collaborated with twice Grammy-nominated producer Ethan Allen (Ben Harper, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Tricky) shaping a sound that blends indie pop, soul, and alt-rock textures with striking emotional depth.
As an artist who draws deeply from her own experiences, Holli’s work reflects resilience, transformation, and the pursuit of joy. With KiKi Holli & The Remedy, she expands her musical universe—not as a reinvention, but as a radiant amplification of who she already is. “WISH” sets the tone for what’s to come, leading up to her highly anticipated album release next fall.
Originally from Pittsburgh, PA, Holli was drawn to the arts from an early age, earning her BFA in voice and theater. A trained vocalist and multi instrumentalist, she has performed in Of Mice and Men, Three Sisters, and Twelfth Night, as well as the cult indie film Isle of Lesbos, praised by Swampflix as “a politically angry, deliberately offensive, post-John Waters, queer-as-f*ck movie musical.”
Most notably, Holli co-wrote and starred in Forever Dusty: The Dusty Springfield Musical, which opened off-Broadway at New World Stages to acclaim from The Village Voice, Reuters, The New York Times, and Out Magazine. The show later ran in Los Angeles, London, and several other cities across the U.S. and U.K.
With “WISH,” KiKi Holli & The Remedy offer a rocking, spellbinding track that encapsulates the essence of Holli’s artistry—emotional, transformative, and timeless. It marks the beginning of an exciting new phase, one that celebrates collaboration, depth, and the power of evolution without losing the soul of KiKi Holli’s unmistakable voice.
