Julia are a 5 piece Liverpool based band, featuring both male and female vocalists. Combining honest lyrics cradled by inventive sound scapes that reflect the often dark or painful subject matter, Julia are creating an exciting and unique sound previously unheard in the UK’s music community. Drawing influences from Sigur Ros, Tom McRae, Tool and Jeff Buckley, their sound has been described as contrasting, both beautiful, vital and somber.
