A BIT OF HOLLY GOLIGHTLY HISTORY
Holly Golightly is a British singer-songwriter.
She is a former member of the all-girl garage band Thee Headcoatees, the female incarnation of the Billy Childish group Thee Headcoats. For her solo career, she draws from rhythm and blues, rockabilly, and sounds of the 1960s or earlier. She has released thirteen studio albums of her own and has collaborated with other artists, such as Billy Childish and Rocket From The Crypt, and most notably The White Stripes; she is featured on the track "It's True That We Love One Another" from their album, Elephant.
She performed two songs on the soundtrack of the movie Broken Flowers: 1) "There Is an End (Featuring Holly Golightly)" by The Greenhornes & Holly Golightly (which can also be found on the Greenhornes' album Dual Mono), and 2) "Tell Me Now So I Know" by Holly Golightly (found on the album Truly She Is None Other), which is a song originally written by English singer/songwriter Ray Davies of The Kinks. She is also a collector of rare old songs which she often covers.
Most recently, Holly has teamed up to form a duo, recording and touring extensively with her long time bandmate Lawyer Dave. As Holly Golightly and The Brokeoffs, they have released two albums to date, You Can't Buy A Gun When You're Crying in 2007 and Dirt Don't Hurt in 2008.
MEISCE :
Meisce has been together since October of 2002, combining elements of Irish folk, gypsy, Eastern European klezmer, and punk rock, among other influences. They are excessively drink-friendly, and their live shows usually erupt into frenzied dancing and flying alcoholic beverages. Drink the alehouse dry!!!
LE SANG SONG :
Le Sang Song is the solo guise of Seattles Craig Chambers, who also fronts the noise-garage duo Love Tan and the more brittle trio the Lights. Le Sang Songs live incarnation is a quartet with Love Tan drummer Matthew Ford, Min Yee (of A Frames fame), and Chambers wife, Adria Garcia.
