The show is on Tuesday, June 28, 2022. Ticket info:

Livestream show! With a band! This month!

Juliana returns to her internet concerts on Wednesday October 20, 2021 at at 6pm EDT (that’s 11pm BST, midnight CEST 😬) on Q Division’s YouTube channel.

Writing on her official site:

I will play electric guitar and sing, Chris Anzalone will play drums, and Mike Oram will play bass and sing some harmonies. This is the lineup that was set to go on the road before we had to pull out of the tour with Soul Asylum and Local H.

We are all fine (thanks for asking!) and we will be playing an assortment of songs chosen from the buffet of my vast, decades-spanning repertoire.

So no full album show this time, but the pay what you want deal remains with donations being accepted at julianahatfield.com

Juliana played an outdoor show for ONCE at Boynton Yards in Somerville yesterday. This was her first live gig since the before times.

Opening with Bottles & Flowers and finishing with Everything’s For Sale, Juliana’s set had many picks from the American Laundromat era, and some deeper cuts such as Daniel and Necessito. Thanks to Vicky for posting the setlist photo (on the Instagram post embedded below.)

The poster as designed by Nicole Anguish is available from Daykamp.

There’s more chat from attendees on the Facebook fan group.

Juliana is scheduled to play at Boynton Yards, Somerville, MA on Sunday, September 19, 2021.

Tickets for this outdoors show are on sale at Eventbrite.

Juliana will continue her full album livestreams from Q Division Studios with a solo performance of 2000’s Beautiful Creature on Saturday June 19, 2021 at 4pm EDT.

The pay what you want deal remains and donations can be made at Juliana’s official site: julianahatfield.com

Confiriming her announcement during last week’s livestream for In Exile Deo, Juliana will be back at Q Division Studios on Saturday May 8, 2021 at 4pm EDT to perform songs from the new album Blood.

Writing on her official website:

This show will be a bit different than the previous ones in that I will not be performing a whole album start to finish. I will play a handful of songs from the "Blood" album, but I will also pick a selection of songs from my vast decades-spanning repertoire that all somehow touch on the idea of blood. ("Anemia" will be one of them.)

As ever, this is a pay what you want affair with donations accepted via julianahatfield.com

Juliana’s 5th livestream show will feature her 2004 album In Exile Deo, live from Q Division Studios.

The show will be on Saturday April 24, 2021 at 4pm EDT (that’s 9pm BST / 10pm CEST.)

Once again PayPal donations are accepted at Juliana’s official site, and the show will be live on Q Division’s YouTube channel where it is intended to stay online for roughly 2 weeks.

The 4th in Juliana’s monthly livestream shows will feature her 2008 album How To Walk Away.

Writing at her official site, Juliana says:

I am going to set up both an acoustic and an electric guitar, though I won't be playing them both at the same time (I only have two hands, unfortunately).

The show is scheduled for March 20, 2021 (back to a Saturday slot).

This will again be 4pm local time for Juliana, but time zone aficionados will note this will be in Eastern Daylight Time, so Europeans should consult their calendars. (For instance in the UK we will still be on GMT making this an hour earlier than usual for us at 8pm London time).

You know the score by now but for newbs the show will be live on Q Division’s YouTube channel and stay online for a couple of weeks, with pay what you like PayPal donations taken via julianahatfield.com

While you wait for this show you can read all about the album with the 2008 track-by-track review and more info than you’ll ever need on the How To Walk Away archive page, part of the ongoing revamp of the discography section.

They come around so quickly, these livestreams.

Juliana, writing at her official site:

For this third installment I will perform, at Q Division Studios, my “Only Everything” album, start to finish, by myself with an electric guitar and a loop pedal, which will enable me to play some guitar solos over some looped chord progressions (trust me, it'll be fun). It will be broadcast via the Q Division YouTube channel .

The scheduled time is 4pm EST on February 21, 2021. That's the same time of day as before (9pm GMT, 10pm CET) but a different day of the week (it's a Sunday) just to keep us alert.

The solo electric with loop pedal feel will bring back memories for those of us who attended Juliana's European shows in 2006. Check out Carsten and Lieve's excellent photos from back then:

After the Become What You Are extravaganza, Juliana has announced that there will be another full LP acoustic performance from Q Division Studios on Saturday January 23, 2021 at 4pm EST. (The same hour as before so that’s 9pm GMT / 10pm CET.)

She’s chosen 1998’s Bed, a big fan favourite.

This will be the 2nd time Juliana has played it in its entirety, following her 20th anniversary full band performance in May 2018 at The Burren in Somerville. (photos from that show are here)

Once again this will be a pay what you want show, available free to view on Q Division’s YouTube channel.

Juliana will perform her 1993 classic album Become What You Are in a solo acoustic broadcast from Q Division Studios on Saturday December 19, 2020 at 4pm EST (that's a European friendly 9pm GMT / 10pm CET, yay)

It will be available live on Q Division's YouTube channel and ~~ thereafter for an unspecified period for those who can't make that time. ~~ update: As of January 2021, the video has been removed.

Writing on her official website, Juliana says:

There is no set ticket price—you can pay what you want, or not. It is up to you. Since none of us—artists nor audiences—can have in-person concerts until who knows when, I am hoping that some of you will be able to contribute something, which will help generate some of that lost touring income. But I understand that a lot of you are struggling financially and I want everyone to be able to see the show—so if you can’t pay, that’s okay!

#paywhatyouwant4becomewhatyouare is not the official hashtag because I've just made it up.

Fabulous news. I'm sure we're all looking forward to this Christmas treat.
