Mistletone and Triple R present Los Angeles singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Julia Holter, touring Australia for the first time. Julia Holter’s lush, absorbing compositions juggle ideas from the pop and classical worlds, melding field recordings with baroque pop and hypnotic melodies.
Julia will perform her exquisite songs as a trio, her stately piano accompanied by cellist Christopher Votek and drummer Corey Fogel. Fresh off a string of shows with Sigur Ros, playing the Andy Warhol Museum and appearing alongside Poland's Sinfonietta Cracovia Orchestra at the Unsound festival in Krakow, Julia Holter's live show is a swirl of ethereal beauty and classical atmospherics which will take your breath away. For her intimate show at The Toff, Julia will be joined by much-adored Melbourne dark-folk storytellers The Orbweavers and Auckland songstress Dear Time's Waste, who has joined Julia Holter's Australian label Spunk Records. DJ King Sim will keep the dancefloor swooning between sets.
"And at the center of all this time travel stands Julia Holter, pulling in references and sounds from everywhere and shaping them into a music that's both haunting and life-affirming, something to make you dream and think." - PITCHFORK BEST NEW MUSIC (Rating 8.6)
"Julia Holter has created a radically new world from a crystalline Venn diagram of sound." - NPR
