Julia Holter, Shepherd's Bush Empire, London, UK, 15 November 2016

A wonderful, and really intimate set from Julia and her three-piece support band, with an added bagpipes on one tune, and not a guitar in sight

. 

The set combined off-kilter pop tunes from Julia's latest album with less mainstream material from her earlier albums. At times the songs stretched out in enthralling columns of sound. At others the sounds bouncing between the musicians brought out beaming smiles in the audience.
