Juliander – “Cold Shoulder”

Born as Albin Juliander Palmgren, this Swedish singer, songwriter and producer has been a part of the music scene from a young age. Signed by Sony at the age of 16, he’s written and co-written songs for a number of artists. He’s also toured with Zara Larsson, recorded with Noah Cyrus and performed at Coachella. Inspired by The Weeknd and The 1975, he released his debut “Same Moon” in 2017.

Fusing 80s synth-pop with contemporary elements, his new single has a punchy retro vibe that still manages to stay current. Starting with a bouncy neon synth laying down an anthemic intro, he then comes in with a modern vocal production and resonant beats. And with the addition of some early 80s strings and the warmth of his voice, this is an irresistible slice of sunlit dance-pop vigor.
