Los Angeles singer-songwriter zzzahara has unveiled another track from their forthcoming debut album today.

“julia” arrives with a music video directed by Cole Santiago, which can be seen below. zzzahara said this about the new song:

“‘julia’ is one of the first songs I ever wrote. One of those where I knew I had nailed the chord progression. I was in highschool and the pressure was on because our school’s Battle of the Bands was taking place in a few weeks. This girl I sort of liked—I say sort of because she could never make up her mind about me—was performing at the Battle of the Bands show so I decided to get to writing! ‘Juliaaaa,’ I yelled with emotion while I was in my room, hitting the first chord. I remember that moment feeling like a big accomplishment. I knew I had made something catchy. When the day came and I went to perform the song on stage, she was there in the audience. I sang the first few lines and she ran out of the auditorium.”

zzzahara’s debut album Liminal Spaces will be released on October 21 via Lex Records. Pre-orders can be made here.
