Listening to Julianna Barwick is like discovering that beauty exists in a raw form. As an element. Or as some crystalline structure unearthed from the soil that shimmers, translucently, with sunlight. We wrote before about the meaning behind the title of Barwick’s delicate and gorgeous new album Nepenthe, which will see release August 20th via Dead Oceans. You can watch the incredible video for “One Half,” directed by Zia Anger with cinematography by Derrick Belcham above, and you can stream all of Nepenthe on NPR right here. Lastly, Barwick will undertake a massive US tour with Sigur Ros. Full dates below.
