Holly Golightly Artist Snapshot:

Holly Golightly is a former member of garage punk revivalists Thee Headcoatees, an all-female splinter group of Thee Headcoats. A prolific songstress, her rollicking, blues-based swagger has graced solo material since 1995's THE GOOD THINGS. More rooted in early rock & roll, rhythm & blues, and rockabilly than the basic three-chords-and-a-girl-group stylings of Thee Headcoatees, her raspy-voiced originals and covers--ranging from Lee Hazelwood and Ray Davies, to Bill Withers--have been stylistically consistent from release to release. In the late-`00s, Golightly collaborated with Texas-based musician Lawyer Dave, on two country blues-inspired releases under the name, Holly Golightly & the Brokeoffs.

Review

Spin (p.95) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Adorned with gospel shouts, errant banjo licks, and a smattering of unusual percussion, these tunes could easily slot onto a Harry Smith Folkways anthology of field recordings..."
Dirty Linen (p.93) - "Most of the songs were self-penned, but it's a testament to the band's vision that the few genuine old-timey cuts, such as 'Cluck Old Hen,' fit the spirit and mood so well."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.109) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "'Getting High For Jesus' rewrites Dylan's 'Tombstone Blues' as exuberant rockabilly; 'For All This' and 'Indeed You Do' are vexed, spooked-sounding laments."
Clash (magazine) (p.109) - "'Dirt Don't Hurt' takes the onus out of stuffy production and sticks the importance back into the magic of a song as 'My 45' conjures Parton-esque pride with first class harmonies....A contender for album of the year -- sensational!"
Record Collector (magazine) (p.88) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]here's no denying she plays it with verve and buckets of attitude."

Title Note

DIRT DON'T HURT is the British singer-songwriter-guitarist's second album of brassy, twangy, deeply felt tunes, with collaborator Lawyer Dave operating as the Brokeoffs. An increased wistfulness has set in since Golightly's days with Thee Headcoatees. "Up Off the Floor" is a heartbreaking, tears-in-your-whiskey ballad. "Bottom Below" and "Burn Your Fun" jerk up the tempo while still maintaining an appealing, world-weary feel. The duo does get feisty on "My .45," which is most assuredly not about vinyl!
