Since releasing her debut album in 2016, Julia Jacklin has carved out a fearsome reputation as a direct lyricist, willing to explore the boundaries of intimacy and agency.
Don’t Let the Kids Win introduced audiences to Jacklin’s folky storytelling, while her startling 2019 follow-up, Crushing, brought listeners uncomfortably close. Expanding beyond her signature sound, her dreamy new album, PRE PLEASURE, sees Jacklin gently loosening her grip.
Seeing Jacklin live is seeing her at her most authentic self; an uncompromising and masterful lyricist, always willing to mine the depths of her own life experience, and singular in translating it into deeply personal, timeless songs.
With a sound that moves from stark and raw to loose and playful, Jacklin draws audiences in with her intimate storytelling and captivating live performance.
