San Holo stage presence invites an innovative take towards weaving personal journey through a live show experience. He is constantly running around stage, creating beats from scratch and layering on top of his guitar riffs. He utilizes his punk and alt-rock roots in adding a seamless grunge aspect to his music.

This musician’s concert performance is nothing short of an emotional experience. All of the colorful imagery, projections, and use of a huge curtain captured the navigation through life’s highs and lows. His opening montage utilized a curtain that projected symbols depicting the turbulences that life takes us through. With the drop of the curtain, San Holo stood invoking the audience on a journey.
