Julia Stone's Hugely Anticipated Album Sixty JULIA STONE’S HUGELY ANTICIPATED ALBUM SIXTY SUMMERS IS OUT TODAY Image Credit: Brooke Ashley Barone “‘Stone in Pop Princess mode?’ I hear you questioning, perhaps with furrowed brow. Oh, hell, yes! We’re here for her luminescent, poptastic glow-up as well you should be!” - STACK “Gone is the gently plucked, harmony-laden complexion of her earliest releases. In its place is a highly danceable glam and electropop sound, which bears a closer resemblance to artists like Goldfrapp and Muse than First Aid Kit.” - MUSIC FEEDS “When you think about the last couple of decades in Australian music, there aren't many voices, if any, that have been as ubiquitous and game changing as that of Julia Stone's.” - ABC ONLINE “Euphoric” - ROLLING STONE The wait is finally over. Today, Julia Stone’s third solo album Sixty Summers is out! (out now via BMG). “I wrote this music over so many years, and through different life experiences and moments. It means a lot to me to finally share with everyone these hidden stories of that time.” The album arrives today, alongside the focus single and record title track, ‘Sixty Summers’. ‘Sixty Summers’” is a tale inspired by Stone’s early twenties, summers spent with friends on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, attending parties and experiencing the visceral elements of Australian summer — “the smell of salt water and sunscreen and mangoes and dead Christmas trees.” In the throes of youthful wonder, one of Stone’s friends turned to her and asked, “Can you believe we’ve only got sixty summers left?” With its warm, reverb-soaked guitar and bright horn section, “Sixty Summers” feels like the perfect soundtrack for that time of the year. “This song is about what you do with your sixty summers,” says Stone. “Do we waste it trying to grapple for more money and comfort, or do we live to make each other happy?” The title track follows the formidable ‘Fire In Me’, and ‘We All Have (feat. Matt Berninger)’ - a tender ballad featuring the unmistakable vocals of The National’s frontman. There’s the dreamy, rose-coloured ‘Dance’, the ethereal ‘Unreal’ and, her first single in more than 8 years, ‘Break’ is an exciting song drenched in dazzling moonlit pop. tracks join nine others on Sixty Summers, the scope of which is vast. Each previous single has been revealed alongside artwork produced by surrealist Spanish- Croatian artist, Filip Custic, whose work explores the impact of digital technologies on our conscience and sense of identity. Each single is accompanied by award-worthy videos — visual feasts and impeccable partners to the oeuvre of music. For the visuals, Stone collaborated closely a slew of creatives and stars, all the while flexing her own acting and dancing muscles throughout the process. Australian director and one of Julia’s oldest friends and long term collaborators, Jessie Hill, brought ‘Break’ and ‘Dance’ to life – the latter featuring stellar performances by Susan Sarrandon and Danny Glover. Directed by Bonnie Moir, ‘Unreal’ features Australian actor, Damon Herriman (Once Upon A Time In Hollywood). ‘We All Have (feat. Matt Berninger)’ was directed by twice ARIA-nominated director, Gabriel Gasparinatos (Baker Boy, ONEFOUR) and features Gabriel's cousin, Jesse Gasparinatos as an Abalone diver from Australia's southernmost town. Director Rhys Day and producer Coralie Tapper were enlisted for ‘Fire In Me’, which features outstanding performances from Australian actor David Wenham (The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Van Helsing, 300: Rise Of An Empire) and Jarrad Seng from Survivor AU season 2. Her first solo album in eight years, Sixty Summers arrives as a powerful rebirth for one of Australia’s most prolific artists. Emerging from the wildernesses of folk and indie-rock, on Sixty Summers Stone dives headfirst into the cosmopolitan, hedonistic world of late-night, moonlit pop. The stunning album brings us the grit and glitter of the city, with all its attendant joys, dangers, romances and risks. It is Stone at her truest, brightest self, a revered icon finally sharing her long, secret love affair with this vibrant and complex genre. Recorded sporadically over five years from 2015 to 2019, Sixty Summers was shaped profoundly by Stone’s 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 30 demos with her at his studio in New York. As a thoroughfare for indie rock luminaries, Bartlett’s studio was perfect fertile ground for Stone’s growth. Previous studio visitors, such as Matt Berninger from The National and Bryce Dessner, ended up on the album. “Making this record with Thomas, I felt so free. I can hear it in the music,” says Stone. Clark, on the other hand, was the incisive yang to Bartlett’s yin. She is a sharp musical polymath who, when presented with the work Bartlett and Stone had made together, expertly fashioned Sixty Summers into the album it was meant to be. Clark sang and played guitar on the record in addition to her production work, and it was her revered touch that brought the sparks out of Stone. “Jules is the best,” Clark says of her experience working with Stone. “We were always fond of each other from afar, but after working on this, we became great friends. She's a brilliant woman — tenacious, perfectionistic, so smart. All fire.” Sixty Summers is a world unto itself; a surreal and breathtaking new landscape. It finds Stone claiming every part of herself: fire, fury, love, lust, longing. Sixty Summers is an album you can dance to, and one you can lose yourself in completely.

  • Watch the National's Vibrant New 'Sleep Well Beast' Video
    Blistein, Jon. “Watch the National’s Vibrant New ‘Sleep Well Beast’ Video,” Rolling Stone, December 14, 2017 Watch the National’s Vibrant New ‘Sleep Well Beast’ Video The National‘s new video for “Sleep Well Beast,” the title track off their Grammy-nominated album, is a densely layered collage of city buildings, outdoor landscapes and people. The frantic movement of the visuals provides a fitting complement to the song’s angular production. Casey Reas directed the video, with designer Luke Hayman and photographer Graham MacIndoe. In an interview with Billboard, National singer Matt Berninger explained how Reas put together the video using MacIndoe’s pictures. “If you pause at any time in the video, you see a number of different levels of information happening. He’s using a number of different algorithms and tools. It’s a combo of programming, tech and the strange ways you can make that organic. It’s just a bunch of stoner nerds who are into art and rock.” The National also announced they were launching a new festival, Homecoming, in association with MusicNOW. The two-day event will take place April 28th and 29th in the band’s hometown of Cincin- nati, Ohio. The National will curate the lineup, which will feature over 20 artists across two stages in Smale Riverfront Park, as well as other venues throughout the city. The National will perform during both night’s of the festival as well. Weekend passes go on sale December 15th via the festival’s web- site. The National released Sleep Well Beast in September.

  • RAGNAR KJARTANSSON & the NATIONAL a LOT of SORROW 27 JUNE – 23 AUGUST 2015 OPENING: 26 JUNE, 6-12 PM Here's What Happene
    RAGNAR KJARTANSSON & THE NATIONAL A LOT OF SORROW 27 JUNE – 23 AUGUST 2015 OPENING: 26 JUNE, 6-12 PM Here’s what happened: You meet someone and play them your current favourite song, only to find out that it’s their favourite, too. Yes! Then you listen to it forever – or at least for six hours. If you don’t just have a weakness for pop music, but also for melancholy, and if you’re also a visual artist called Ragnar Kjartansson, then you might ask the band (in this case, The National), whether they would like to play the song (in this case, Sorrow) in New York’s MoMA PS1 non-stop for six consecutive hours – and then you make a film about the whole thing. This is the impact of these six hours: Exhaustion sets in, the song begins to change under the weight of time and the musicians begin to experiment cautiously. There are clashes and friction between pathos and irony, trance-like states set in and break off, until a new, collective experience between emotion and reflection, of presence and duration becomes possible. And if you prefer, you could also simply hear and see a literally wonderful concert. On view downstairs, under the repeated rhythms of Sorrow, Kjartansson’s most recent series of paintings is on show. Die Nacht der Hochzeit, watercolours of dark starry skies, and A Lot of Sorrow are both comprised of ever varying repetitions of the same subject. Painting and drawing is an essential part of Kjartansson’s practice, despite being best known for his large scale durational performances and video works.

  • Matt Berninger on Patience
    October 27, 2016 - Matt Berninger is best known as the vocalist for The National, a group that's performed at small clubs, large festivals, and for President Obama (and, next week, for Presidential Nominee Hillary Clinton). He's also in the group EL VY with Brent Knopf of Menomena and worked with his younger brother Tom and his wife Carin Besser (who used to be the New Yorker's fiction editor) on the 2014 documentary, Mistaken for Strangers. He and Carin are currently developing an episodic TV series. It stars Tom. As told to Brandon Stosuy, 3623 words. Tags: Music, Adversity, Beginnings, Inspiration, Success, Anxiety. Matt Berninger on patience I was an artsy kid. I took art classes in high school; that was my main thing. I loved art, but I was also kind of brainy. When I went to college, I decided I was going to be a doctor. I was in pre-med for one year at Miami University of Ohio. I hated it. I wasn’t bad at it, but I hated it. The next year, I switched to sculpture. Pre-med to sculpture is a pretty big leap. Then I realized that maybe being a sculptor wasn’t going to be enough. I didn’t love it enough. So I quickly pivoted to graphic design. It was right before graphic design became a household word, where basically anybody with Photoshop could call themselves a graphic designer. Graphic design sounded sexy. It sounded cool. It was somewhere between art and being a professional. I’d be making album covers and posters for cool things.
