Philadelphia-based singer/songwriter Julia Pratt is a guitarist, pianist and vocalist with a background in jazz. She’s known for her skilled vocal layering and otherworldly harmonies over a dense piano and synth backing, and her creative vision is linked to the often bizarre and obscure inner world of dreams and emotions.
Julia started singing as a teenager after a childhood of playing multiple instruments including cello and saxophone. After playing jazz saxophone for a few years, she decided that she wanted to sing the standards that she had been playing, and began by trying to emulate the sounds of her idols Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday. She then set out to create her own songs that captured the delicate lyricism of the jazz standards that they sang, but with her own modern sensibility.

La cantante y compositora Julia Pratt, afincada en Filadelfia, es guitarrista, pianista y vocalista con formación en jazz. Es conocida por sus hábiles capas vocales y armonías de otro mundo sobre un denso fondo de piano y sintetizador, y su visión creativa está vinculada al mundo interior, a menudo extraño y oscuro, de los sueños y las emociones.
Julia empezó a cantar de adolescente tras una infancia en la que tocó varios instrumentos, entre ellos el violonchelo y el saxofón. Después de tocar el saxofón de jazz durante unos años, decidió que quería cantar los estándares que había estado tocando, y empezó intentando emular los sonidos de sus ídolos Ella Fitzgerald y Billie Holiday. Luego se propuso crear sus propias canciones, que captaran el delicado lirismo de los estándares de jazz que cantaban ellas, pero con su propia sensibilidad moderna.
