Anthony “Dulaa” Holmes is a Memphis, TN based “Krunktry Music” artist / storyteller / songwriter / producer with an exciting new film project & music video, “Something Like A Outlaw”. Dulaa, also known as "The King of Krunktry", is known for his modern country style with a Southern rock or "krunk" influence, as suggested by his title.
 
Music has been a huge part of Dulaa’s whole life and his music today has been shaped by some of the places he lived as he was growing up.  Raised in South Memphis and Durant, Mississippi, his love of music started early.  His dad was a truck driver and according to Dulaa, “All my Daddy would play was country music and blues while riding the road, so it embedded itself in me.  I would buy rap tapes from the truckstops.  I loved Sade,  Johnny Cash,  Run DMC and Conway Twitty”.  
 
As Dulaa grew older, his next stop was New Orleans. “I moved to New Orleans to pursue music career and lived with my friend Derek Dabbs who was a jazz musician and his wife at the time, Debbie.  During this time I was running back and forth to Houston producing music for movies and a few animated series.
 
As Dulaa was crafting and honing his music, he found that the music he was writing, producing & performing was more for what other people wanted to hear rather than what was true to Dulaa’s soul and passion.  He came to the realization that he had to be true to himself and write, produce and perform the music that came from the amalgamation of the music he loved growing up.  
That is when he came up with the term, “Krunktry Music” to describe the sound of the music he was creating.  
 
“Krunktry Music” is a gumbo of sounds that incorporate a little Hip-Hop with Country based music and theming, mixed with the twang from deep down South in the Mississippi Delta.
