HOLLY GOLIGHTLY AND THE BROKE-OFFS
TAYLOR HOLLINGSWORTH (CONOR OBERST & THE MYSTIC VALLEY BAND/TEAM LOVE REC.)
It’s late, but who knows how late. You lost your watch days ago. The bar is full, but strangely quiet. Then you hear the band, whose slow, reverbed-out, Phil Spector-esque guitar is balanced by a reassuring, soulful bass line and simple, almost mechanical Joe Meek-style drums. A spotlight cuts through the curtain of cigarette smoke and illuminates a graceful lady who sings with the only voice you want to hear at that moment. A voice infused with longing, lost love, and possibly bourbon. She is Holly Golightly.
You may know her as a member of the Headcoatees (the female counterparts to Billy Childish’s Headcoats), but this time around, Ms. Golightly has taken her sultry blend of country and soul out on her own. Well, not completely on her own: Golightly plays double bass, while her close compatriot Dan Melchior plays guitar and sings backup and Bruce Brand applies his ultimate wisdom to the drum kit. The results are intoxicating tributes to unforetold woe and ill-gotten gain, a little bit country, a little bit bluesy, and a little bit…British. It might return you to your senses, or it might just push you over the edge. -EPITONIC.COM
