Let's make this birthday one to remember.

75 years old (Born on June 06, 1949)

Happy Birthday, Holly Near! Your voice has always been louder than any microphone—championing social justice and inspiring change through melodies that resonate deeply. From your powerful performances advocating peace to your unwavering commitment to human rights, you've proven time and again that music truly can move mountains (and hearts!).

Here's wishing you another year filled with harmonious activism, joyful moments on stage, and perhaps a few humorous backstage mishaps worth singing about later. Keep shining bright; the world needs more of your timeless tunes—and fewer off-key politicians! Cheers to you for continuing to make history sound so good.
