Julia Haltigan & the Hooligans

This past Tuesday I had the honor of checking out my old friend Julia sing with her band - Julia Haltigan & the Hooligans.


I ran into Julia a month or so ago and she told me she had just finished recording her album and my first thought was - "another dreamer! get a job!" (Yes I drink the haterade on occasion.) She left me with a flyer for her show and even though I assumed the worst I checked out her myspace page.

Boy was I wrong! She is amazing!!! She sings a folksy blues rock -- it's kind of like if The Band, Tom Waits, and Norah Jones all had a love baby together.

She drives a motorcycle, her dad plays harmonica in the band, and she is adorable. Swoon.

Check out the music video of her single "I Don't Want To Fall In Love" produced by another old friend - Andrew Barchilon:



You don't get the whole experience without seeing her live - so go check her out for free every Tuesday at the 11th street bar (11th street between Avenue A and B).
