In every way, Julia Brown's only full-length record An Abundance of Strawberries defies expectations. Their final release, Strawberries was recorded largely after the band had broken up. Rather than scrap a large amount of material, songwriter Sam Ray and violist and singer Caroline White decided to finish the record with a rotating cast of musicians, including the original band members Alec Simke and John Toohey, as well as Sean Mercer, Warren Hildebrand, Alex Giannascoli, Abby Trunfio, and others. Largely eschewing traditional band arrangements, they worked heavily with samples - drum machines, breaks, and bird calls in lieu of traditional percussion, 808s in place of basslines - before layering arrangements of strings, pianos, horns, and omnichord on top alongside lush harmonies and oft-affected vocals. The result is a meticulous record that sounds like nothing and everything at once. Both celebratory and melancholy, it nods toward a lineage of pop and indie-pop artists from Ellie Greenwich to Heavenly and more experimental acts like Fog, Cotton Candy Collective, Spiritualized and Duster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn Abundance of Strawberries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Snow Day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e All Alone in Bed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 25 Days (May 15)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Without You (Full)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Abby's Song\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e You Can Always Hear Birds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Way You Want\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Loved\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Body Descends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Possession (Full)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Closing (On a Roof)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Bloom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003eShop online 24\/7 at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57420759564623,"sku":"811774024198","price":3.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/8725\/2047\/files\/3064245.jpg?v=1775628138","url":"https:\/\/vibesvinyl.com\/products\/julia-brown-an-abundance-of-strawberries","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
