Julia-Sophie Released New Single & Video “telephone”

Released on June 25th, “telephone“ is the breathless and dreamy second single from ‘forgive too slow,’ Anglo-French avant-garde electronic artist Julia-Sophie’s debut solo album. The single follows May’s acclaimed “numb,” and is accompanied by the hazy heartbreak of its music video.

Previously she toured the US with artists like Blondie, Courtney Love, and Juliette Lewis as a founder of Little Fish, and earned millions of streams with Candy Says for songs in the films ‘Close’ and ‘Burn Burn Burn.’

Her solo work has been praised by The Quietus, Bandcamp Daily, TLOBF, Lauren Laverne, Mary Anne Hobbs, Nemone, Don Letts, Huw Stephens, Our Culture, Under the Radar, Electronic Sound, and many others.

Taken from ‘forgive too slow’ (LP / July 26th):

‘forgive too slow’ is the aching and ambitious debut solo album from acclaimed Anglo-French avant-garde electronic artist Julia-Sophie.

Her weird and winding journey to this debut has included experiences as an international major label artist (“I didn’t care enough about being famous to survive all the sh*t that was being thrown at me.”), recording film scores, motherhood, and much more.

The album is about relationships and what happens when we “forgive too slow” and can’t break out of patterns from the past. The songs narrate her story of self-destruction (“numb”), love (“falling”), and loss (“telephone”). By the end, embers are still burning and there is no telling if Julia-Sophie has found peace, but we do get a sense that she has gotten closer to the core of her being and is finally living authentically.

‘forgive too slow’ will be released on vinyl via Brooklyn’s Ba Da Bing Records on July 26th. The “numb” single is out now and will be followed by “telephone” (June 25th), and “wishful thinking” (July 22nd).
