FEATURE

Julia Klot is a NYC-based pop music artist writing soulful pop music combined with elements of rock, funk, jazz, and intricate piano parts, accompanied by a dynamic vocal range. Her writing evokes a vast range of emotions through soulful ballads and vulnerable lyricism, but also makes you dance and sing out loud with her funkier, upbeat tunes. With her original compositions, she creates melodic and intricate piano parts accompanied by her dynamic vocal range, comparable to artists like Sara Bareilles and Norah Jones. Julia’s past releases include her debut album "Brooklyn,” her sophomore release "Ghost,” the EP, and her most recent single “Boxing Gloves." She has been playing established venues throughout NYC for upwards of ten years, both as a solo act and with her band. “Lie” was released on September 20th, 2024, and the music video was released today!

Julia’s song “Lie, produced by herself, Britney DiTocco, and Nick Sochan, sets the scene for a new funk-pop sound by various artists. The track is riddled with fun instrumental elements like a funky Clav sound, Wurli keys, a catchy horn arrangement, vocal earworms, and a dance-break-worthy instrumental. “Lie” is a song based on a guy who thinks highly of himself, which leads him to believe he is irresistible. The guy attempts to impress her at the bar to get a hookup. “Lie” highlights her turning him down and taking back the bar for herself and her friends as a spot for hanging out, showing that they aren't there to be picked but to be by themselves. The music video brings the writing to life, colorful and fun while showcasing the story in great detail. It’s a must watch for fans and great insight on the artist’s creative vision. Besides the strong message passed through the track, one cannot overlook Julia's confidence in her vocals and her brilliance in fitting her vocals with the sounds on the track seamlessly.
