Latest Release
Julia Holter Sun Girl
Single | 7th November 2023
Fragments of flute, field
recordings, Yamaha CS-60, bagpipes, mellotron, drums, and fretless bass are
interwoven to delirious and balmy effect, infusing the ludic drum programing
and production style of Holter’s earliest recordings with a fresh vibrancy. The
song’s lyrics - “Place me, drag me, move
me, Sun Girl”—evoke the spirit of a childlike game, but also, says Holter,
“being brought out of my comfort zone—into the unknown, playfulness and chaos.”
