I didn't see her when she played in Lawrence, Kansas, last month, but the below is a writeup from a local web site that previewed the show:

"British singer Holly Golightly teamed with Texas's The Brokeoffs for a new collaborative release titled "You Can't Buy A Gun When You're Crying." Claiming influences such as
bourbon, brisket, ribs, Lead Belly, Howlin' Wolf and the cutting-edge audio technology of the Victrola, the album is informed by WWII-era cabaret music a la Tom Waits and lots of
spooky organ tones. Golightly's live sets are known to incorporate covers from the likes of Ike Turner, Lee Hazlewood and more, but expect something entirely different this time
around with The Brokeoffs in tow."
