Julia Holter releases 'So Humble The Afternoon

Following on from the release of her much-loved cover of Fleetwood Mac’s 'Gold Dust Woman' earlier this year, Julia Holter has now returned to officially release one of her fan favourites.

The track 'So Humble The Afternoon' was originally unveiled as part of Adult Swim’s Singles Series back in 2018, but has now been given a full digital release.

Speaking about the offering, she said, "In ‘So Humble the Afternoon’, recorded a few years back, I was immersing myself in the woozy warmth of the synth and mellotron timbres. and they were a comforting foundation for me to sing over, to soften the harshness of the afternoon which always feels to me like the least introspective and most alienating part of the day. And something about the hazy malaise of this song seems to me to suit this endlessly apocalyptic time.”
