Julianna Barwick's Stormy Record 'Will' (From the Archives)

Published: Aug. 6, 2020, 4 p.m.

Julianna Barwick has been a repeat visitor in the studio (April 2013, Spring 2018.) In 2013, she was teasing songs from the protean, beautifully hazy Nepenthe, to which Sigur Rós's producer Alex Somers lent some of his trademark Icelandic sheen. Barwick's album, Will, preserved that ethereality, but also added sonic jags, peaks, and valleys. (Still no word on whether her collaboration with Dogfish Head brewery had any influence on this ...woozier... sound.) Julianna Barwick performs songs from Will in-studio in this session from 2016.
