Biography

(1992 – present)

Juliana Hatfield (born July 27, 1967 in Wiscasset, Maine, United States), is an American guitarist/singer-songwriter from the Boston area, formerly of the indie rock band Blake Babies.

The daughter of Philip M. Hatfield (a radiologist) and The Boston Globe fashion critic Julie Hatfield, Juliana was born in Maine and grew up in the Boston suburb of Duxbury. She acquired a love of rock music during the 1970s, having been introduced by a babysitter to the music of the seminal Los Angeles punk rock band X, which proved a life-changing experience. She was also attracted to the music of more mainstream artists like Olivia Newton-John and The Police, perhaps explaining the dialectic in her later music between sweet, melodic “pop” songs and more hard rock oriented material. Visualizing herself as a singer since her high school years, Hatfield sang in school choirs and briefly played in a cover band called The Squids, which played Queen and Rush songs.

Hatfield began her solo career following the Blake Babies’ breakup in 1991, releasing her first solo album Hey Babe in 1992. The album was one of the highest selling independent albums of 1992. Hatfield recruited a rhythm section comprised of former Moving Targets and Bullet Lavolta drummer Todd Phillips, and Thudpucker bassist Dean Fisher, and thus becoming The Juliana Hatfield Three.

    I lost my scrunchie on the floor while I was slam dancing during that Velocity girl concert. Oh man, I needed to go to the bar and grab myself a Zima. " Rad" that guy at the bar noticed my ripped Guess jeans with " Even Dando" written on them. Sassy Magazine said they were cool. oh and I love Juliana.

    i hate Juliana, she's such a bitch, she acts as if she doesn't even know that i exist! But I would do anything to let her know I care. But I am only talking to myself 'cos she isn't there.

    Wish she would rock out more like the old days. That's when she's at her best.

    I think Someone Else's Problem is an spectacular song off of There's Always Another Girl, too bad it's basically the only one.

    how do you make an album as good as Only Everything and make so many albums afterwards that range from middling to straight-up garbage?
