New Album From Juliana
Hatfield's Girl Group Set for Release on July 11th, 2006
NEW YORK, NY -- (MARKET
WIRE) -- 05/03/2006 -- Some Girls featuring Juliana
Hatfield return this summer with their new album
"Crushing Love" to be released July 11th, 2006 on KOCH
Records.
"Crushing Love" is the second album by Some Girls, the
iconoclastic trio consisting of singer, guitarist and
esteemed solo artist Juliana Hatfield plus drummer Freda
Love, previously Hatfield's bandmate in seminal indie
combo the Blake Babies and now a member of the Mysteries
of Life, and bassist/multi-instrumentalist Heidi Gluck,
formerly of the Pieces and currently of the Only
Children.
The 14-track collection expands the provocative,
hook-laden songcraft of its 2003 predecessor "Feel It"
into compelling new directions, while maintaining the
same balance of electric energy, melodic craft and
emotional nuance that made the prior disc so resonant.
With Hatfield, Love and Gluck sharing vocal and
songwriting duties, the songs boast subtly irresistible
hooks and pointedly punchy performances, as well as
deceptively plainspoken lyrics that navigate thorny
personal territory with unflinching truthfulness and
barbed humor.
"Some Girls is a really open, creative atmosphere, and
it feels totally different from what I do in my solo
thing," Hatfield asserts. "In my head, Some Girls is an
outlet for certain songs that I feel like I can't do
justice to without Freda. Her drumming is so
effervescent and groovy that some songs seem to call out
for it. And Heidi is such a great musician and singer
that she kind of makes it all jell."
