‘Music that's both haunting and life-affirming, something to make you dream and think.’ Pitchfork

US singer-songwriter Julia Holter possesses a rare gift for merging compositional prowess and strong concepts with pop sensibility and applying them to beautiful arrangements and resonant songs. These new songs are enormously ambitious - taking its cues from the likes of musician Joni Mitchell and poet Frank O’Hara, but forging those inspirations into something resolutely unique.
Loud City Song is her new studio recording by US singer-songwriter Julia Holter. The album follows 2011’s groundbreaking debut Tragedy and last year’s follow-up, Ekstasis.
