ASCAP award winning singer/songwriter from Pacific Grove, California.
HOLYSEA is the moniker of artist Rachael Chloe Williams. Since unearthing her love of singing/songwriting on the eve of her 30th solar return, she hasn’t looked back.
Honored and spurred by an ASCAP foundation Jay Gorney award win in 2020, she has been compiling a sea’s worth of songs and is excited to finally be sharing them with the world!
Her first album, ELYSIUM, released Sept 2024 and is a call for us all to make our own heaven on earth by putting on our child eyes and getting honest and real about who we are and what we want—and then taking action to change our lives. <3
(For you deep divers :) )
About the name!
HOLYSEA’s vocal instructor and friend Robert Edwards coined her stage name after receiving a vision about it in a dream. He knew Rachael as a trained and seasoned marine ecologist/activist and saw her as a protector of her majesty, mama ocean, aka the Holy Sea.
In alignment with her chosen name, HOLYSEA’s music serves as a salve for the soul and a key for locked hearts. It is her wish that sharing the songs which flow through her will help to elevate the listener and encourage each of us to act from love so that we may see that reflected back in the mirror of the world.
