FEBRUARY 16, 2009 @ BLUES ALLEY (WASHINGTON D.C.) - 2 SHOWS! - February 6, 2009

PRESS RELEASE: LOST IN HOLLAND FEBRUARY 16, 2009 @ BLUES ALLEY (WASHINGTON D.C.) [8PM&10PM]
--------------------------
Recently in Mountain View, California where they performed at the 22nd annual “Bridge School Benefit” with Neil Young, Lost In Holland embarks on their 2009 tour, performing February 16, 2009 at The Blues Alley in Washington DC. Two shows, 8PM and 10PM.

Lost In Holland is a duo of two young musicians. Josh Hisle is a lifelong singer/songwriter with several of his songs used commercially and in independent film. It was when Josh met Neil Young at the shooting of “CSNY: DÉJÀ VU” that his career in music began to flourish. After performing at the Sundance Film Festival with Neil Young and Graham Nash, California based Vapor Records released his debut album “Hearts and Minds”. It is then that he met friend and fellow song-writer Michael G. Ronstadt. Michael, a veteran songwriter with his Masters Degree in Cello performance, and certainly no stranger to improvisation, took Hisle’s longtime dream to the next level. They played one evening in his father’s basement, and the rest was history. Mike and Josh began their rise together. Finishing their new album “The Last Great Loss” and hitting the road to support it.
