Julian Miles Holland, OBE (born 24 January 1958) is a British pianist, bandleader, television presenter, architectural eccentric and pop music enthusiast.
Holland was a founding member of the highly acclaimed and successful band Squeeze. He played piano and keyboards on all their singles and albums through 1980, when he left the band to concentrate on his own career (though he would later return).
Holland had actually begun issuing solo records as early as 1978 (with an EP called Boogie Woogie '78), and continued his solo career through the early 1980s, releasing an album and several singles between 1981 and 1984. He perhaps gained more fame, however, as a TV host, co-presenting the Newcastle-based TV music show The Tube with Paula Yates. Holland achieved notoriety by swearing to camera on live TV causing the show to be lifted for 3 performances, and was fired as a result.
