Los Angeles-based indie pop singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Chandler Juliet has today released her long-awaited concept EP, elements, featuring 4 songs about personal experience loosely themed around each of the four elements: fire, water, earth, and air, while enveloping the overall theme of letting go of adolescence and growing up in the big city.
The four-song collection includes her previously released singles, "burning sage" (the 'fire' element), "tidal wave" (the 'water' element) and "gravitational" (the 'earth' element) as well as her new song, "hide and seek" ( the 'air' element), a haunting piece about growing up in the big city and the struggle to let go of adolescence, and acceptance that we "can't go back".
Each song off elements features personal stories of life experience with soul-baring vulnerability and authenticity, during Juliet’s relatable struggle to transition into adulthood. Through her music, Chandler pens her unique story of being born and raised in the big city of Los Angeles, and staying for the dream and pursuit of music.
Speaking on the release, Chandler says:
"This project was created during the first official year on my own after finishing college - this whole year has felt like a rebirth, and I started to turn inward - my writing became very introspective. Going from feeling my lowest and loneliest ever, writing songs alone in my room, to recording and releasing them, to hearing an audience sing along with me at sold out showcases in Hollywood, has been an incredible growth to witness. Connection is a human need, and I have found that through creating and performing music. LA can be a lonely city, but knowing that others are connecting to my creations is the most fulfilling feeling I've ever known."
Chandler Juliet is a voice for millennials and DIY artists alike in this new, confusing age of music and the new music model. She defies the odds and doesn't let anything stop her from releasing and performing her original music, and uses her resources to create and promote all facets of her art for this conceptual music project.
