Julia Stone - Sixty Summers

Released 30th April 2021.

SK Says: 'Doveman and St. Vincent prove perfect foils on a danceable indie pop record recalling the pulsating disco of Goldfrapp and the jerky rhythms of Annie Clark'sformer sparring partner David Byrne. After covering 'Bloodbuzz Ohio' on 2012'sBy The Horns, Stone once again turns to The National for inspiration asMatt Berninger and Bryce Dessner make an appearance.'

Recorded sporadically over five years from 2015 to 2019, Sixty Summers was shaped profoundly by Stones key collaborators on the album: Thomas Bartlett, aka Doveman, and Annie Clark, the Grammy-winning singer, songwriter and producer known as St. Vincent. Bartlett and Clark were the symbiotic pair Stone needed to realise her first pop vision. A wizard of production and songwriting, Bartlett helped coax Sixty Summers independent, elemental spirit from Stone, writing and recording over 50 demos with her at his studio in New York
