Sink or Swim Presents: Julianna Riolino + Support
Thursday 7 December 20237:30 pm - 11:00 pm
£10adv (+ booking fee) The Tin At The Coal Vaults
Julianna Riolino knows how to capture and highlight beauty before it fades. On her debut LP, ‘All Blue,’ Riolino reflects on her own past, the memories of pain, healing, and love strewn through it. The songs focus on morality and the stretch of time, seeping naturally into Riolino’s Americana-indebted songwriting, resulting in a golden and fluid debut. Blending past and present musically, the album represents Riolino’s own experiences. The songs, written over a period of years, with meanings picking beyond that stretch and pulling lessons forward. Throughout, her philosophical lyrics bring that complexity forward to the listener in surreally sweet melodies, pouring growth and healing directly through the ear and into the heart. ‘All Blue’ is out now on You’ve Changed Records.
