Julia Nunes On ‘World Cafe Next’

Before a eyes of her YouTube subscribers, Julia Nunes went from being a teen covering her favorite artists to a immature lady personification live shows with them. She began to post strange songs and covers of her favorite bands — Say Anything, Ben Folds, the Beatles, among many — to her YouTube channel “jaaaaaaa.” Before she knew it, a immature artist had amassed 45 million views to her YouTube account, was raking in awards for her musicianship and songwriting, and in 2008 Ben Folds asked her to open for him after saying her cover one of his tracks.

Nunes has expelled 3 albums exclusively and is about to recover her fourth, Settle Down, on Mordomo Records on Feb 28. Over a 6 years given she began her YouTube channel, Nunes’ character has developed from punk cocktail to mellow ukulele pieces that showcase her voice. In a new cover of Nat King Cole‘s “When we Fall in Love,” Nunes layers her recordings to orchestrate with herself, upheld by usually meagre strumming on her ukulele. Hear Nunes’ marks “Stay Awake” and “Lookout For Yourself” from Settle Down on this part of World Cafe: Next.
