Josh and Hollie Steel are the dynamic brother and sister duo whose separate talent is incredible, but when paired together, becomes spectacular. They’ve previously won the hearts of their audience by covering songs from musicals like Cats, Oliver!, My Fair Lady and Fame.
Singing since he was a little boy, Josh exuded talent from the get-go. Hollie only broke on to the scene when she performed “I Could Have Danced All Night” from My Fair Lady on Britain’s Got Talent. She was just warming up, when the judges looked disinterested, but managed to reel them back in when she pulled out her big voice and wowed everyone.
Hollie’s Britan’s Got Talent performance showcased her operatic voice, propelling her career forward from that day on which helped strengthen her brother’s career too.
In this video, big bro and little sis (there’s a 5-year difference between them) channel their inner operatic voices to bring to life the classical song, “Music of the Night” from the fantastical Andrew Lloyd Webber musical, The Phantom of the Opera at the Leatherhead Theatre, in the UK. This is a big song, one for the classically trained elite who know the highs and lows it presents for sopranos.
And yet, these two nail it. Their presence and perfect pitch sending goose bumps down the spines of each member of the audience.

If Hollie looks familiar to you, perhaps it’s because you remember her as being a contestant on season three of BGT
Hollie was only 10-years-old when she auditioned for the show, walking in front of the judges dressed as a ballerina.

At first, Hollie danced to the song, “I Could Have Danced All Night,” a performance that had Simon rolling his eyes and hovering his hand over the buzzer. It didn’t seem like she had a chance.

Amazingly, she ended up blowing them all away.
Little did the judges know Hollie actually had another talent up her sleeve. A short time into the audition, she suddenly stopped dancing and began singing “I Could Have Danced All Night,” showing off her beautiful and powerful vocals. Everyone was stunned.

Not only did Hollie receive four “yeses” to move on to the next round of the show, but she also came in sixth place overall in the season!
