Julie Doiron

Delicate, interlocking electric guitars and breathy vocals recorded with startling intimacy. A winter-worn collaboration that feels like a shared secret.

A quiet, winter-locked vulnerability that finds strength in its own fragility.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring honesty of the line 'Me, I'm only pretty when I'm crying' delivered with a devastatingly calm breathiness.
The way the Wooden Stars' guitars interlock in a delicate, math-rock-lite lattice during the bridge of 'Gone Gone'.
The sudden, surprising warmth of the brass entering the mix on 'Drums + Horns' like a sunbeam through a frosted window.
