Having not released an album since 2013, we’re so excited to hear Julia Holter’s new album Have You In My Wilderness. Holter’s sound has always had a creative art-pop sound to it. With dreamy like qualities, Holter’s relaxing mellow vocals have had fans hooked since her first release. Her new album is set for release on September 25th through Domino.
The first track of Have You In My Wilderness has been released and is accompanied by a video. It is titled “Feel You”. The song is absolutely beautiful in an ethereal manner. Holter’s soft vocals are set with a number of string instruments, giving the track an artistic flair. The dreamy art pop style of Julia Holter’s is heavily contributed to by “Feel You”.
Julia Holter’s last album, Loud City Song, contained nine songs of mellow tunes and magic that caused it to soar in the charts. We’re hoping the success of Loud City Song will be replicated in Have You In My Wilderness for Julia Holter. The exclusive sound she has as a vocalist is showcased perfectly in her work. By falling in love with her whimsical sound, you can’t help but rejoice in new material.
The material within Have You In My Wilderness is described as demonstrating Julia Holt’s most powerful vocal control yet! Her focus lies within incorporating her vocal strength with her artistic aptitude. It provides listeners with a truly incredible experience both visually in her music videos and audibly with her unique sound.
Here’s the tracklist for Have You In My Wilderness!
1. Feel You
2. Silhouette
3. How Long?
4. Lucette Stranded on the Island
5. Sea Calls Me Home
6. Night Song
7. Everytime Boots
8. Betsy on the Roof
9. Vasquez
10. Have You in My Wilderness
Even the track titles sound otherworldly. The sound you’ll get from Julia Holt is unlike any other, and we cannot wait to hear how she branches out vocally and creatively with Have You In My Wilderness. Her incredible sound inspires you to get lost on the streets of Paris from the way she ties on old school sounds with modern trends. Her work encourages you to be creative and it boosts your imagination! Though there is truly an aura around most of her albums, it is not a limiting factor but instead provides a genuine energy to Holter’s music.
Julia Holter is on tour in Europe all this fall after the release of Have You In My Wilderness. As one who seems to be inspired by the places she goes, we can expect some great live performances from her to accompany the release of new work.
Dreamy music can have a tendency to lose you a bit in the middle. The energy tends to fade out, and this can sometimes lose the hold the music has over listeners. If there is one thing Julia Holter manages to do incredibly well, it is maintain the level of energy she possesses in a song without losing any characteristics to her sound. We’re excited to see how she manages to do this with her new album, and we eagerly await late September!
