Acclaimed experimental songwriter JULIA HOLTER returns with new music on November 18. The follow-up to last year’s Have You in My Wilderness is not a usual album but a soundtrack for the movie Bleed For This by director Ben Younger. It’s a biopic based on the life of boxer Vinny Paz which sees Paz (played by Miles Teller) staging his boxing comeback following a car crash and what could have been a career-ending spinal injury. JULIA HOLTER composed ten new tracks for the soundtrack but also picked music by WILLIS EARL BEAL and GEORGE MICHAEL for it. It arrives digitally on the same day as the movie – November 18 – and one week later in physical form.
You can listen to the haunting track Fighting Duran right here, followed by a trailer for Bleed For This. There’s also the option to revisit our interview her from 2015.
