About

julie isn't just a band; it's a shimmering, feedback-drenched ecosystem where dream pop sensibilities collide head-on with the aggressive energy of shoegaze and alternative rock. Hailing from Los Angeles, the trio—guitarist Alex Massey, bassist Keyan Zarei, and vocalist/guitarist Petra Glynn— crafts a sound that feels both ethereal and undeniably visceral. Think My Bloody Valentine meets Slowdive, but filtered through the lens of contemporary anxieties and a healthy dose of youthful rebellion. Their early EPs, culminating in the raw power of albums like "Pushing Daises," quickly garnered attention for their meticulously crafted soundscapes and Glynn’s haunting vocals, which often float just above the swirling guitars like a siren's call. Breakthrough performances at local venues solidified their reputation as a live act to be reckoned with, a reputation that’s now spreading nationally. julie's cultural impact lies in their ability to bridge the gap between classic shoegaze aesthetics and modern indie sensibilities. They're not simply recreating a sound; they’re reinterpreting it for a new generation grappling with information overload and a longing for authentic emotional expression. Their music provides a sonic refuge, a space where distortion becomes cathartic and vulnerability is celebrated. They are continuing to tour and refine their sound with each performance, and anticipated to release further studio projects soon.
