What do you do when your parents were part of successful singing groups? Why, form one yourselves! That's what the offspring of Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys and John and Michelle Phillips of The Mamas & The Papas did. In 1989, Chynna Phillips & Wendy and Carnie Wilson merged to form Wilson Phillips. Their smooth harmonies helped catapult their debut album to #2, which produced three #1 hits.
Their first single, Hold On, not to be confused with other Hold On song by En Vogue that was released at the same time, is an inspirational track about finding inner strength to make it to tomorrow. Chynna Phillips wrote the lyrics during a stint with drug abuse. For the video, the girls are seen up in the mountains and down at the beach singing while tourists look on with intrigue and bewilderment.
Hold On was filmed in Venice and Mt. Baldy, CA
