Julia’s airy voice is anchored by a steady, metronomic guitar riff and an unhurried rhythm, warm blankets of sound that lay a protective weight across her fragile self. Her lyrics are typically dreamy and slight, a yearning here to live in California, where she will try to be kind. Her work is still ethereal but there is an underlying strength to this song, taken from Julia’s solo album By The Horns.
