Following the recent announcement of their debut album my anti-aircraft friend dropping on September 13th via Atlantic Records, band and art collective julie shares the track “very little effort.” The song follows the lead single “clairbourne practice.”

julie recently wrapped up a run of shows across North America supporting Faye Webster and Alex G in addition to a number of one-off, sold-out headline shows in St. Louis, Seattle, Santa Fe, Portland and New York City. Additionally, julie will embark on their headline North American tour celebrating my anti-aircraft friend this October and November.

julie arrived on the scene in 2020 with “flutter.” The band’s true begining goes back to the late 2010s when vocalist and guitarist Keyan Pourzand and drummer Dillon Lee were joined by vocalist and bassist Alexandria Elizabeth. The trio played shows with local acts around Orange County in high school before relocating to Los Angeles in 2019 for design school, where they began writing the songs that would make up their impending debut album my anti-aircraft friend. In 2021, julie released their EP pushing daisies, which includes the tracks “skipping tiles” and “april’s-bloom” and proceeded their 2022 double single “pg.4 picture of three hedges” / “through your window.”

julie’s members all bring their individual creativity to the table, multidisciplinary artist – Pourzand does sculpture work and Brady writes and paints, while Lee is also a painter as well as illustrator – the band deliberates and conceives every element of their releases, not just the music but the art and packaging, all the way down to what instruments they play onstage.
