A Nevada City native who is trying to make it in the country music business is sharing some of his success with the community he grew up in. Jonny Houlihan had always wanted to be a songwriter, so as a young man, he decided to follow that dream…
Houlihan is now 40, and has his first solo CD out, called ‘New Old Town’. Houlihan says the title track is about growing up around here…
Another song on the CD, called ‘For What It’s Worth’, is about the failed attempt to bring big box stores like Walmart into Nevada County…
The CD is on sale at Record Connection, and Houlihan is donating part of the proceeds to three area charities–Big Brothers-Big Sisters, The Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Coalition, and Women of Worth…
Houlihan had hoped to be in Nevada City for Christmas, but has postponed his home visit until next month. He says he hopes to perform on Broad Street when he get backs here.
