JULESY announces her debut full-length album, Flip the Bed, the New York City artist’s new LP, will drop on October 17th via Strong Place Music, ahead of it’s arrival, she has shared lead single, “Heart On the Line.” With influences ranging from Imogen Heap and They Might Be Giants to Alex G, JULESY’s debut explores the liminal emotional spaces many artists leave untouched.

Raised in an intensely creative household — her father a film composer, her mother a voice teacher — JULESY grew up surrounded by instruments and self-expression. “I’m not really trying to write about my life,” she says. “I’m writing through it — as a way to make sense of what I can’t say any other way.”

On “Heart On the Line,” JULESY channels the emotional chaos of transition, both sonically and lyrically. Driven by moody synths and twang-laced guitar riffs, the track captures the complexity of being caught between endings and beginnings. “I wrote this song at a really confusing time,” she explains. “I was ending a long-term relationship and kind of starting a new one. I actually wrote it twice — once about the old, once about the new — and then merged them. That overlap felt more honest than choosing one or the other.”

Music runs deep in her DNA: her dad is a film composer, her mom a voice teacher. Growing up, JULESY took marimba classes instead of dance, surrounded by instruments in a house where creativity and critique flowed freely. Flip the Bedwas co-produced by Sahil Ansari and performed by her band, which includes her twin brother Cal on keys and vocals. “Some things, he just gets — more than any collaborator could,” she says. “We can read each other’s minds a little bit.”

The album’s title comes from a ritual she still finds herself repeating — moving her bed around the room to try and shift something inside. “I was either trying to change my perspective, understand someone else’s, or being forced into a new one,” she says. The songs were written from that place: not quite heartbreak, not quite healing, but something messier in between.
