Leave it to Tayler Holder to give us a holiday bop to add to our festive playlists this season.
The 23-year-old creative just released his original track “Feels Like Christmas” earlier this week, and to no surprise, its an upbeat pop earworm with R&B sensibilities that highlight Holder’s raw, soulful vocals. Co-written by Holder with Kelianne Stankus and Nate Wyatt, Stankus and Wyatt also contribute their vocals to the track.
The trio are very familiar with each other’s work ethic, as they are all part of the Triller Compound, which is a creative Gen Z networking space Holder spearheaded and launched this year, in partnership with the entertainment platform. Collectively, all of the compound members have an impressive combined reach of over 60 million, and the Triller Compound also functions as a talent incubator in order to develop and nurture each of the creators’ individual talents – underscoring the innovativeness of this Gen Z group and their skill at personal digital marketing and branding.
As for what’s next, Holder is currently recording new original music, with his debut single due out early next year. His modeling career is also on the rise, having recently signed with The Society Management modeling agency. Additionally, Holder has found success in the sports and acting worlds. His athletic talents led him to star in Brat TV’s motocross-themed digital series Dirt (for which he did all his own stunts). Following his first leading role, he was also featured in Brat TV’s Total Eclipse.
Check out the song and its accompanying music video, which stars Tayler, Kelianne and Nate — with special guests Indiana Massara and Chase Mattson — below and let us know what you think of Tayler’s new song by either leaving a reaction at the bottom of the post or by sending us a tweet at @celebsecrets.
