Julia Holter has treated fans with the single entitled “So Humble the Afternoon” via digital release. Originally unveiled in 2018 as part of Adult Swim’s Singles Series, Holter’s hushed vocals and the ambient noise offer some much-needed solace. The track Follows her recent cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Gold Dust Woman,”

From Julia Holter:

“In ‘So Humble the Afternoon,’ recorded a few years back, I was immersing myself in the woozy warmth of the synth and mellotron timbres. They were a comforting foundation for me to sing over, to soften the harshness of the afternoon which always feels to me like the least introspective and most alienating part of the day. And something about the hazy malaise of this song seems to me to suit this endlessly apocalyptic time.”
