“Try To Make Yourself A Work Of Art” (Tragedy LP, 2011)

Julia Holter is one of those people I look to and just dream of the future.  She is a part of Human Ear, along with Ariel Pink, Nite Jewel, John Maus, and others, and her independent study at CalArts sounds idyllic from what I remember.  Maybe we’ll get married.  She’s also recorded the greatest cover of “Don’t Dream It Over” by Crowded House possible (the only mp3 I could find of her cover is on this mixtape — it starts at 3:27).  Seriously, she’s the best.
