Juliana Hatfield Livestream 1/23/21

January 13, 2021 by Rafi

We’re psyched to host Juliana Hatfield for a SECOND livestream from Studio A. Juliana will perform her LP BED in its entirity.

On December 19, 2020, Juliana Hatfield performed her LP Become What You Are in its entirety (twice!), and over 800 viewers joined us. We’re looking forward to this next livestream – which again will feature only Juliana Hatfield and her guitar.

Here’s a note from Hatfield:

Hello, friends. I want to thank all of you who took part in my first livestream last month. I am heartened by your generosity and your kindness and attentiveness. I am going to continue to do this, playing a different album of mine all the way through, once a month. For my second livestream I will perform, at Q Division Studios, my “Bed” album, start to finish, by myself with an acoustic guitar. It will be broadcast via the Q Division YouTube channel. Showtime is Saturday, January 23rd at 4 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (Massachusetts time).

As before, there will be no tickets and no set ticket price—you can pay what you want, or not (it is entirely up to you), and then just show up to the appointed place/link at showtime. Since none of us—artists nor audiences—can have in-person concerts until who knows when, I am hoping that some of you will be able to contribute something, which will help generate some of that lost touring income. But I understand that a lot of you are struggling financially and I want everyone to be able to see the show so if you can’t pay, that’s okay!

Starting right now, there will be a “donate” button with my PayPal YeOldeRecords account and a link to the Q Division channel. You can pre-pay (pre-donate) now or at any time from now until and during the show on January 23rd. Happy New Year and thank you for continuing to be here, listening.

–Juliana

P.S. We can chat, live, before/after/during the event.

Donation will be accepting via PayPal at this link.

We’ll be streaming it from our YouTube page.

This is my Christmas/Holiday gift to you—to thank you for continuing to be here, listening—and you will reward me by being present yourselves when I play and sing my album. And we can chat, live, before/after/during the event! The songs still mean a lot to me and I have been so gratified by the way that people responded, and still do, to the music. Cheers!

Juliana Hatfield releases “Juliana Hatfield Sings Olivia Newton-John”

January 31, 2018 by Samuel Haiman

Tracked by James Bridges and mixed by Pat DiCenso in studio A, Juliana Hatfield’s Olivia Newton-John tribute album has been described as a match made in female-rocker heaven.  Recorded with her longtime rock ‘n’ roll rhythm section of drummer Pete Caldes and bassist Ed Valauskas of the band Gravel Pit, the record showcases both hit songs and lesser-known tracks from Olivia’s catalog.  Describing her admiration for Newton-John to Paste Magazine she admitted “I never lost my love for Olivia. I never hid it.”

For the sale of every album, one dollar will be donated to the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness & Research Centre (ONJ Centre), a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing patients with cancer access to leading medical treatment, breakthrough research, and the best in wellness and supportive care.

Juliana Hatfield – Pussycat

April 30, 2017 by Samuel Haiman

Playing all instruments but drums, Hatfield completed Pussycat in under two weeks recording at Q with Pat “Denzel” DiCenso. Written in response to the election cycle of President Trump, there is an immediacy to its melodies—simpler and scrappier than she’s written in years—paired with the snarl of the arrangements, Pussycat is a rumbling, cathartic honesty ideal for the anger of our times.  Released via American Laundromat Records on April 28th and its first single “Short-Fingered Man” through Stereogum, the record can be streamed in its entirety below.

A few weeks ago we took delivery of Mitch Easter’s Chamberlin M1. With analog tapes that are a time capsule from a forgotten era, this magical machine has the sounds of vibes, female voices, male voices, cello, harpsichord, violins, flutes, and french horns... 
We have a bit of an embarrassment of riches of analog tape samplers at Q, but as you might know or can guess, these beasts are incredibly temperamental and not always on their best behavior, but when they're working well there's nothing quite like these incredible machines.
