Four-time nominee at this year’s Aotearoa Music Awards, Georgia Lines, has released a hook-laden new song, ‘Julia’ - the second single from her upcoming EP, THE GUEST HOUSE, which is out on Friday August 29.
A playful song, ‘Julia’ is like a three-minute daydream with a touch of the legendary Carole King. “The song doesn’t take itself too seriously,” says Georgia. “It feels like you’ve accidentally wandered into the middle of a soap opera.”
Georgia adds that ‘Julia’ taps into a very specific feeling: “We’ve all had that moment with an ex. Maybe we don’t say it out loud, but deep down we’re thinking, ‘You can date anyone… just not her.’ ‘Julia’ taps into that exact feeling, but with a sense of humour about it. It was actually inspired by a dream I had, twice in the same night, where I found out an ex was seeing the one girl I secretly hoped he wouldn’t end up with. Classic dream logic, but even in my dream my response was ridiculous.”
The video for ‘Julia’ was filmed at a farmhouse in Manawatū. “It’s simple, fun and doesn’t take itself too seriously, just like the song. There’s no big narrative or elaborate storyline, it just really leans into performance, letting the personality of the song be the main character,” says Georgia.
‘Julia’ follows on from the recent release of ‘Wonderful Life’. Both songs were co-written with and produced by British singer, songwriter and producer Matt Hales (who also makes music under the moniker Aqualung), and are on Georgia’s upcoming EP, THE GUEST HOUSE (out on August 29).
“I’m so deeply proud of this project Matt and I made together,” says Georgia.
“It’s honest, it’s human, it’s fun, and it feels like the most perfect next step after the album. These songs hold so much of where I am right now, both personally and creatively, and I can’t wait to share them with the world.
