1A. Indie Singer-Songwriter Julia Pratt Is An Artist On The Rise; strength in softness

Julia Pratt is a woman on the rise. She’s a talented singer/songwriter/guitarist/producer/pianist(?) who’s new project FAMILY FEUD shows the burgeoning songstress in a minimalist and holistic home. Each word holds weight. The lyrics are heavy and echoed through a soul that’s in the process of lifting what feels like a mountain off its back, showcasing a strength in softness and honesty.

The beautiful music that IS this album is accompanied by a this short FILM that goes well with a lovely red glass of NOIR.

E N J O Y RESPONSIBLY:

Relatable stories like that of “Chronos, Cruel Handler” …

Alongside beautiful visuals make for engaging content and draw the audience in deeper. Both “Michael” and “Chronos, Cruel Handler” are somber, hopeful ballads that stir the soul. The video theme of soft girl isolated in nature continues with “Carolina,” a theme for the EP, and overall it feels like a story that would connect with any young girl lost in the algorithms of the internet. It’s connecting with this young man in the same way. “Bull In A China Shop” is my favorite of this collection.

After going on tour with Vancouver Sleep Clinic in 2023, she did a leg with Amos Lee and just performed at Green River Festival which was headlined by CAKE and Fleet Foxes.

XPN and Rec Philly have both featured her in their live video series and she just headlined her first show in May. Bigger and bigger spots, the Philly music scene loves to see it!
