Vintage charm meets dreamy alt-pop in Julia Adrian’s recent release. In “sucked in,” The Manhattan-based singer-songwriter draws listeners into a sound that feels refreshingly original.
An old-timey radio announcer voice leads into a 1950s-inspired vibe. Jazzy instrumentals and a steady rhythm support velour vocals. The result is a soulful listen, angelic harmonies further uplifting the track. “sucked in,” much like its name, is entrancing.
A few months ago I came into the studio and told @koryshore I wanted this song to be “less blue, more black and white vintage-y, more 1950s girl with pearls eats spaghetti.” We ate pizza, listened to 50s jazz, and came up with this.

The ones I like are never right for me
I try to take space but I can’t win with gravity
You’re an enigma, and I like a mystery
