Amplify: Countertenor John Holiday

Countertenor John Holiday joins Lara Downes for a conversation about finding one's true voice and identity - metaphorically and literally - and letting nothing get in the way of it. He's had a wide ranging career, from singing the "A-B-Cs" every morning to his school over the loudspeaker to concert performances, to being a finalist on the NBC TV show The Voice, and all the while has tried to be authentic to who he is as a musician, and a human being.
