Horsegirl present new single, "Julie" and announce EU/UK tour dates

Horsegirl have released "Julie" as the second single from their forthcoming Cate Le Bon-produced new album Phonetics On And On.

The video, directed by Amsterdam-based animator Daphna Awadish Golan, started as a month-and-a-half animation process, and represents the song’s themes of moving into a new city, the cold of winter, and unrequited love. Much of her animation work features animals as stand-ins for people. Golan individually prints each frame of the background video and then hand draws with oil pastels on top. She scans all of those frames back in to create the final composition, with the tactile nature of her style and process being something that highlights the mood created by the track.

Horsegirl have announced UK and European tour dates for June 2025, including a London show at Scala on 20 June, following dates in Barcelona, Hamburg, Berlin, Porto, Cologne, Antwerp, and Paris. Following this, they will play shows in Bristol, Manchester, Glasgow, Dublin, and Bristol.

Phonetics On and On, is set for release on 14 February via Matador.
