Cellophane (Holy Holy album)

Cellophane is the fifth studio album by Australian indie rock band Holy Holy, released on 22 September 2023 through Wonderlick Entertainment and Sony Music Australia.

Upon announcement on 11 August 2023, Timothy Carroll said "We formulated this idea of Holy Holy as this kind of songwriting factory". Furthermore, via the press release, Holy Holy said the album is about "shedding their inhibitions, alleviating themselves of the weight of expectation, and pushing their sound to new territory."

To promote the release, Holy Holy performed six intimate events across Australia's east coast in September 2023.

At the 2023 J Awards, the album was nominated for Australian Album of the Year.
