Julie’s journey began in the late 2010s, when high school friends Lee and Pourzand, later joined by Elizabeth, formed the band with a simple goal: play one show. Their sound, born out of teenage discovery, evolved into a raw, experimental force that blends shoegaze with grunge, as heard on their debut album 'my anti-aircraft friend'. With emotionally charged tracks like “clairbourne practice” and “very little effort,” julie creates an intense, cathartic experience, pushing boundaries both musically and artistically.

C Turtle is a band that defies easy definition. Their music balances poetic lyrics, raw emotion, and blistering guitars. The new album, 'Expensive Thrills', draws from grunge, alternative rock, and indie influences like Pixies, Pavement, and Flying Nun icons such as The Clean, while still sounding fresh and contemporary. With their distinctive sound, they stand alongside modern trailblazers like bar italia and Lime Garden.
