History

Julie, originating in Orange County, California[1] formed sometime in 2018, and subsequently self-released singles that created early support for the band, including "Flutter".[2] In 2021, the group released their debut EP, Pushing Daisies.[1] In 2022, Julie released two new songs titled "Pg.4 a Picture of Three Hedges" and "Through Your Window". In the same year, they were signed to Atlantic Records.[3] In 2024, the group announced their debut full-length album, My Anti-Aircraft Friend, which was released on September 13 via Atlantic Records.[4][5][6] Ahead of the album's release, singles "Catalogue," "Clairbourne Practice," and "Very Little Effort" were released.[7][8][9] The group was named "One to Watch" by The Guardian.[10]

Musical style and influences

Julie's music has been categorised as shoegaze[11] and noise rock.[12][13] They are a major player in the 2020s wave of shoegaze.[11] Office Magazine also calling them a part of the "canon" of 2020s noise rock, stating that much of said 2020s shoegaze, in fact, noise rock.[12] NME stated their music is "in stark contrast to the increasingly long list" of artists at the time playing the shoegaze and nu metal fusion nu-gaze",[14] while Teen Vogue named them as a nu-gaze band.[15]

They have cited influences including Henry's Dress,[16] the Breeders, Nirvana, Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine and Swirlies.[11]
