New Music: Introducing Julia Lewis
May 7th, 2013 | by Coolhand Luke | published in Featured, Music
Ever since we saw Julia Lewis’s visuals for “Tell Me Everything You Are” the video has been on repeat. There’s something about the interplay of the warped but melodic soundscape,, the amazing costume design, choreography and dancing, and the eerie lighting [...]
