Performances and Artists
Fans of Las Vegas headliner Clint Holmes are in for a treat when he performs at Myron’s at The Smith Center.
That’s because he can’t wait to share some of the all-new music that he wrote during the pandemic shutdown.
“I turned to writing music as my full-time profession when the live music industry came to a standstill,” explains the Grammy-nominated Holmes. “That really saved me creatively.”
Armed with this new material, Holmes’ September show will feature a blend of familiar songs by some of his music heroes including Lionel Richie, Burt Bacharach, Bruno Mars, Stevie Wonder and Finneas, as well as a broad selection of his own new songs.
The scenario, he says, creates endless “possibilities,” which is also the name of his show.
Holmes believes that music is the inspiration to endless possibilities in life, love and everything in between.
“This show will take fans on a journey into a world of possibilities where anything can happen,” he says.
A Return Home
Myron’s has been Holmes’ main Las Vegas home since it opened in 2012.
While the Sept. 15 show will be special to Holmes for several reasons, including being the first time his whole band will be back together in Las Vegas since the pandemic struck, the venue itself has great meaning for Holmes.
“The Smith Center as a whole, and Myron’s specifically, mean more to me than any venue I’ve ever played because I was there at the literal beginning,” he says. “I witnessed the first shovel in the ground, I was a small part of the stage design, and I was one of the very first artists to perform there.”
Because of this strong connection, Holmes says he’s been like an ambassador for the center as he travels the world and tells fellow artists that Las Vegas has a world-class performing arts center.
“I’m so proud of this venue,” he says.
Back to the Joy of Live Music
Holmes is thrilled to be able to bring live music back to fans.
“The entire world is thrilled to have live music back,” he says, adding that for him and his wife, entertainer Kelly Clinton Holmes, nothing can replace performing and seeing live shows.
“And that applies for just about anyone else I talk with about the subject,” he exclaims.
