hit & run lp

Julian’s new release, Hit & Run, marks a departure from his trademark acoustic guitar style in favor of electric keyboard and piano. Its ten original songs retain Julian’s evocative narratives while framing them with punchy vocal and brass arrangements. He is joined by a noteworthy array of musicians on the New York scene — a scene in which he plays an integral role through his association with Bar LunÀtico, the popular Brooklyn venue he co-owns and curates.

Produced by Richard Julian @ Figure 8, Brooklyn NY
Mixed by Brad Jones @ Alex The Great, Nashville TN
