The Julia Jacklin record rules. Also gonna recommend the Stella Donnelly record because that album is also great and the thread also died quickly.
Yessss her record turned out great, I liked some of Beware but the new one is a bit more consistent imo
The Beths could very well be my top album of the year. Just perfect and quirky power pop. The album just has this quality to it that I could listen at any time and I'm stoked to listen to it.
