Juliana reunited with Evan Dando for Lemonheads shows

Juliana has been opening for the Lemonheads at US gigs this past week, performing a solo electric set and at some shows joining Evan on stage for a few It’s A Shame About Ray tracks.

Juliana’s sets across the week included performances of Everybody Loves Me But You, Candy Wrappers, June 6th, Somebody Is Waiting For Me, Make It Home, My Sister, Simplicity Is Beautiful, Spin The Bottle, Wonder Why, Bad Day, Backseat, Ugly, Feelin’ Massachusetts, Poor Man’s You, Bottles and Flowers, Everything’s For Sale, and I Got No Idols.

Mike Engleson has a review of the Washington DC show and some photos at Parklife DC, and Jay N. Miller reviews the final Boston date at The Patriot Ledger.

There’s also a brief interview with David Mosca for The Jersey Journal where Juliana comments on her work on the Ray album in the early 90s:

“When I was playing with them in Boston, Evan Dando, David Ryan, and I had an idea to practice about an hour a day,” recalls Hatfield. “So, we would do that, and I loved that kind of short, regimented schedule. Then we went to LA to make the record I did with them. And we knew all the songs pretty well at that point that we didn’t have to hash them out in the studio.”

Although no longer on Twitter, Juliana still has an official Instagram and posted some awesome photos all week including shots from Stacee Sledge and David Doobinin:

There’s plenty of fan footage on YouTube. Here’s a selection of solo and Lemonheads songs, with thanks to Carlos for the links:
