Indie
Bound by sisterhood and defined by piercing vulnerability, Sarah Julia craft harmony-laden indie folk that transforms love, loss, and longing into something quietly luminous. The Dutch group has supported Paris Paloma across the US, UK and EU, shared stages with Faye Webster, Jacob Alon and Neil Young, and headlined in LA, NYC and London. Their second EP, Only Making It Worse - produced by Grammy winner Catherine Marks - builds on their cult debut, cementing them as one of the most evocative contemporary indie folk acts.
Sarah Julia has been nominated for the Music Moves Europe (MME) Awards, the EU prize for emerging European artists. Winners will be revealed at the award ceremony on 15 January, 2026 at ESNS.
