Holly Golightly And The Brokeoffs, Bluebelle, and Lust-Cats Of The Gutters at Hi-Dive
Yes, her namesake is a character in a Truman Capote novel, and yes, she sang a duet with Jack White on The White Stripes’ Elephant. But there’s a lot more Holly Golightly than those two overexposed facts: Golightly’s multi-album career stretches back to the early ’90s and the all-girl garage outfit Thee Headcoatees. On this year’s solo album, Dirt Don’t Hurt, the British singer-guitarist works with multi-instrumentalist Lawyer Dave—billed as The Brokeoffs—for the duo’s second joint effort. Its passionate, record-collection-fueled blend of sleazy blues, R&B, and folk has been Golightly’s calling card for years. Having recently relocated from Great Britain to rural Georgia, Golightly is back on the road and singing the blues.
