Julianna Barwick celebrating 'The Magic Place' --- MP3, video & 2011 Tour Dates (Brooklyn tonight w/ Helado Negro)

DOWNLOAD: Julianna Barwick – The Magic Place (MP3)

“The Magic Place was a tree on our farm,” says Louisiana-raised Brooklynite Julianna Barwick. “It was in the back pasture. It was one tree that grew up, down and around. You had to crawl in and once you were inside, it was like there were different rooms, and you could actually lay in the branches. We named it ‘The Magic Place’ because it really was magical, especially for a kid, and that’s how I feel about my life right now–without trying to sound too hippy dippy or cosmic, this year has definitely been a magical one.”

Julianna Barwick‘s new LP The Magic Place is out now (it’s been out for a while actually) via Asthmatic Kitty and she’ll be celebrating that fact at her official record release show at Glasslands in Brooklyn tonight (May 10) with Helado Negro (who are also celebrating a new Asthmatic Kitty record) and Alias Pail. Tickets are still available (at the door too).
