Sound artist and songwriter Julia Shammas Holter phones it in from Valencia, CA. A co-founder of the Human Ear Music collective (also home to Gary Wilson, Ariel Pink, Jib Kidder, Nite Jewel, etc.), Julia's music is full of strange and sparkling dichotomies: experimental but accessible, sophisticated yet naive, catchy or haunting?, simple ingredients yielding complex results, medieval French poetry meets Bryan Ferry glam. And with only her echoed voice and a Fender Rhodes, she's created some of the most beautiful, beguiling sounds that have yet graced this radio show.
