He has studied piano and organ extensively and has served as organist for Prospect Street United Methodist Church and Epworth United Methodist Church in Marion, as well as St. John's Lutheran Church in New Washington. Holsinger currently serves as Director of Music for Jerome United Methodist Church in Plain City, and he is very active in Marion's musical community. He was recently selected to direct the Marion County Honors Choir for the Harry Alexander Music Festival. He is also a proud member of TBDBITL Alumni Band and had the honor of dotting the "I" with The Ohio State University Marching Band.
