about

"Little Lonely's full-Length debut release, produced by multi-instrumentalist, Sean Hoffman (American Music Club, Loch&Key, Linda Perhacs) combines the plaintive wail of Maria McKee, Julee Cruise and Hope Sandoval with the soft hush of a loping steel string horizon, echo-drenched guitars and girl group swagger. It’s a strange, surreal take on UFOs, the Foxy Lady Tavern, tweakers, zombies and mini-bars – and that’s just on the dashing track “Buttonwillow”.

Little Lonely features accomplished musicians from the world of Indie-Rock, Folk and Americana circles in Los Angeles. These include: Darice Bailey (The Broken West, The Coals), Nic Chaffee (Eels, George Clinton), Greg Eklund (Everclear, The Oohlas), Joey Galvan (Pete Anderson), Eric Heywood (The Pretenders, Son Volt), Baskerville Jones (The Rebirth), Robby Marshall (John Daversa Band), Heather McIntosh (Norah Jones, Gnarls Barkley), George Sluppick (The Chris Robinson Brotherhood, Mofro)." Josh Mills, It's Alive Media

“A perfect blend of Folk, Indie-Rock and Americana music, Little Lonely’s raspy, haunting twang conjures an alternate universe where Chan Marshall and Julee Cruise might hang together at a lost roadside honky tonk smoking cigarettes and playing sad country songs on the jukebox.” Kim Grant, TJ West Music Magazine

"Folk singer Little Lonely covers a lot of ground on her debut album, weaving homespun Americana, dark pop and even a little girl-group pizzazz into 11 provocative yarns that feel very much like Cain's Middle America roots." Kevin Bronson, Buzz Bands

“Moody, subtle, intelligent and just occasionally, a little bit Patsy Cline.” Americana UK

“This album is as good as anything the major labels have put out in the past 50 years. As far as I’m concerned, she is already a star.  She doesn’t need a major label.  She just needs to be heard.”  Frank Gutch, Jr.

“Willie, Cash and Emmylou at their thoughtful, poetic best, walk some of the same streets.”  International Review of Music

Little Lonely Los Angeles, California

Missouri-born, Los Angeles-based storyteller, Little Lonely (www.littlelonely.com), aka Julie Cain, provides a soundtrack for the forgotten American landscape. It’s a frontier dotted with beauty parlors selling transformation, swimming pool apparitions offering salvation, towns submerged in lakes for the sake of progress and road trip promises of lifelong devotion that can never be fulfilled. ... more
