'Singles Round Up', compiles Holly's first twelve 7" singles, A and B-sides. It includes the bluesy 'No Big Thing' with its bar-room piano and harmonica backing, the dirty guitar-driven 'Til I Get', the shuffling brushed drums and double bass of 'Come The Day', the haunting vocal and bottleneck guitar of 'Stain' and finishes with a brilliant up-tempo cover of Pavement's 'Box Elder'. Holly Golightly (real name) started her musical career as a founder member of all girl garage
band Thee Headcoatees, a Billy Childish/Thee Headcoats splinter group in 1991. She spent four years as a Headcoatee before breaking away to release her debut record, 'The Good Things', in 1995. Where the Headcoatees sound was a blend of girl group sounds and three-chord garage-rock with all the original songs coming from the pen of Billy Childish, Holly's solo sound is more a blend of pre-rock electric blues, folk rock, and less frantic rock 'n'roll.
