A classically trained singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer with an encyclopedic knowledge of pop music, Julien Chang's shape-shifting songs balance experience and wonder. Though he was just 19 when his debut album, Jules, was released in 2019, its kaleidoscopic mix of jazz, folk, R&B, and pop boasted a refinement beyond his years. This sophistication extended to 2022's The Sale, which balanced philosophical questions and intricate musicianship.
