Hailing from Long Island's North Shore, Julia Wolf is a once-in-a- generation artist, genre-bending storyteller and a beacon of inspiration to music fans, tastemakers and fellow artists alike. Her journey is a vivid narrative of vulnerability, growth, experimentation & the human experience. Her 2023 debut album, "Good Thing We Stayed", melds Julia's hauntingly beautiful vocals and emotive songwriting with trap-infused pop melodies. Venturing into new realms, her singles "In My Room" and "Wishbone" revisit her rock roots, showcasing her versatile artistry and defiance of conventional boundaries. Julia's bond with her audience transcends music; her lyrics resonate so deeply that fans often immortalize them into tattoos, while industry support has been known to lend itself in the form of billboards (Spotify, YouTube Music) and playlists like Spotify’s “Fresh Finds” & Tidal’s “Rising: Pop”.

Blue, as Julia Cumming of Brooklyn’s Sunflower Bean points out, is something of a “loaded color.” The word is of course often synonymous with sadness—certainly blues music isn’t known for its laughs. But it's also the "emotional color" of the band's upcoming, sparkling second album, Twentytwo in Blue. “We definitely don’t want it to come across as a sad record,” explains Cumming. “Blue is kind of hopeful, and we wanted to explore that color with this record.” The new record by vocalist and bassist Cumming, drummer Jacob Faber and guitarist and vocalist Nick Kivlen is many things: rousing, romantic, topical, empathetic and insightful. But defeatist it’s not.
