Julia Reidy
Brace, brace is Julia Reidy’s dread-tinged incantation unfurling from breath-down-the-neck field recordings, auto-murmured voice, synthetic hum, and irrepressible guitar kinetics. Reidy's signature 12-string playing – precise, burrowing, and rhapsodic – dominates the music, framing a plaintive electric centre. Blooms of arpeggiations and desolate strums re-inflect slow-moving pitch sequences; the music feels at once on fire and graceful, inevitable.
