Juliana Hatfield
As the frontwoman for Boston indie-pop trio the Blake Babies, singer-songwriter Juliana Hatfield set many hearts aflame. She was a voice student at the Berklee School of Music when the band formed, becoming a college-radio staple before the group dissolved in 1990. She then went on to play bass on It’s A Shame About Ray, the 1992 breakthrough record by fellow Bostonians the Lemonheads. This guest spot garnered attention for her solo debut, Hey Babe, released later that year on the indie label Mammoth. Though she grew up amid a privileged background, Hatfield had her share of neuroses, and she wasn’t afraid to share them with her listeners; her solo work melded pop sensibility with surprisingly soul-baring lyrics. For her next record, 1994’s Become What You Are, she formed a new band, The Juliana Hatfield Three; she also appeared in fashion-magazine shoots and an episode of the popular teen drama My So Called Life. Still, she failed to break out of cult status in the US. Her third solo effort, Only Everything, disappointed both commercially and artistically, and Hatfield left Atlantic for the smaller Rounder Records. Hatfield’s delicate EP, Please Do Not Disturb, was released on Rounder’s Zoe imprint in 1997, and the full-length, self-produced Bed followed a year later. In 2000, she released two albums at once, the assured solo effort, Beautiful Creature, recorded with a variety of backing musicians and producers, and the rock-oriented Total System Failure, credited to Juliana’s Pony, the trio of Hatfield, bassist Mikey Welsh (Weezer) and drummer Zephan Courtney.


Juliana Hatfield	Somebody Is Waiting For Me	LiquidAudio	Alternative, Pop
Love her or hate her, but you’ve got to admit she can write a good hook. With her latest doleful pop song, indie-rock’s broken-hearted prom queen will have you teary-eyed by the time the chorus kicks in.
