Despite their privileged upbringing, Wilson Phillips came off as very down-to-earth, wearing jeans instead of runway fashions. Their accessible image made them very relatable and earned them legions of female fans.

“Hold On” was Wilson Phillips’ first single. They honed their skills singing together in Wendy Wilson’s bedroom; when they were ready, Michelle Phillips got them a meeting with producer Richard Perry, who was at the controls for Carly Simon’s “You’re So Vain.” Perry introduced them to Glen Ballard, who took them on. Ballard was an up-and-coming songwriter/producer whose biggest success was co-writing Michael Jackson’s “Man In The Mirror,” a #1 hit in 1988.

Wilson Phillips performs in the music video “Hold On” from the album “Wilson Phillips” recorded for SBK Records. The music video begins with aerial shots of a mountain side. Wilson Philips sings as they sit on the side of the mountain. Later, they sing as they sit together on the beach by the ocean.
