Julia Kahn – “Nonchalant”

Originally from Indianapolis and now based in Nashville, this singer and songwriter grew up singing blues and soul music and sang in a blues band throughout her school years. Slowly finding her niche in writing and producing, she developed a blend of soulful pop and lo-fi electric music. She’s performed at both US and UK festivals like All-In, LeeStock and Sofar Sounds. Inspired by varied artists like Stevie Wonder, Janis Joplin and Lana Del Rey, she debuted with “Fly Away” in 2019.

Lyrically standing up against apathy and reminding us that feeling vulnerable and emotional is a strength, rather than a weakness, her new single fuses her empowering words with a retro-dipped melody. Slightly reminiscent of the Eurythmics, the hypnotic production has a haunting electro-pop sound. With a pulsating beat to lead the way, it’s the captivating synths that take us from soft verse to punchy chorus. And with the gentle touch of her vocals, this gem is an alluring anthem.
