Holly Golightly & The Brokeoffs

Holly Golightly and Lawyer Dave first met in the basement of a China Town smuggler's den. Holly had need for an upright bass player to do a small U.S. tour and The Lawyer was the only one she could find. After a half hour run-through, they were off the next day. You might could say that this was the beginning of their collaboration as the idea of doing records together was first conceived on those long drives in the American West. After nearly ten years, seven-hundred-thousand miles, countless shows and other misadventures, the time finally came. In January of 2007 the two built a make-shift studio in the Southern English countryside to make the record they had talked so much about. With only 4 days to write, record and mix in, the pair couldn't have neen be happier with the result. Supposed to be a low key release, You Can't Buy A Gun When You're Crying on Damaged Goods quickly snowballed into a beautiful monster that scared up enough attention for the two to make an entire year's touring out of it. The second album by Holly Golightly & The Brokeoffs was recorded in Northern Spain during a break whilst touring their first album. Released in October 2008 & titled dirt don't hurt on both Damaged Goods ( UK & EU) and Transdreamer (North America). Holly & Dave are touring the US & Canada, Fall 2008.
