Amanda Holley shares music video for “CODE”

Newark native Amanda Holley is the bi-racial pop sensation with a breathtaking five octave range voice who was singing before she could even speak. Growing up with a cello playing mother and guitarist father, who was also a talented songwriter and wrote for Sarah Vaughan, Amanda was destined to be creative with a heart beating to the sound of the music around her.

Since picking up and teaching herself how to play the violin at age two, she’s been on a musical journey that saw her start playing piano and singing in front of thousands of people from seven years old. With an almost endless list of live performance achievements, she’s graced prestigious stages such as Carnegie Hall, Birdland, United Nations and NYFW as well opening for Wale at Sony Hall, playing Coachella and scores of other top venues all over the USA.

She’s had just as much success with her recorded music, being featured as the title track in the Showtime film Sharon 1 2 3. Following her 2021 hit “Runaway”, she now brings us her recent single “CODE” paired with a music video that the artist co-directed with Louie Gooey. Both singles have been lifted from her upcoming EP titled The HolleyGraphic EP made in collaboration with Bllborad charting producers and songwriters David Chris, Shane Foster and Cecily Wagne.

Laying down a cutting edge, hard-hitting electronic sound with tinges of contemporary R&B, with “CODE” Amanda Holley showcases her extraordinary talent as a vocalist. With a trap style backdrop of snapping beats and pounding bass, Amanda’s silky vocals glide above carrying rhythmic and melodic leads to create a truly memorable and catchy track.

Capturing her empowering sound in visual form, the music video spins a neon filtered scene to perfectly reflect the anthemic energy of the single.

Commenting on the music video, she shares, “This video literally came to me in a dream… and embodies my personal and spiritual journey from not knowing my own power, to finally stepping into it and being able to not only escape a lifetime of abuses and trauma, but use my experience to uplift others.”
