Julian Cubillos

Julian Cubillos is a New York City-based singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist known for crafting emotionally rich, genre-blending pop-rock that incorporates elements of glam, punk, neo-soul, and lo-fi aesthetics. Born in Torrance, California, in 1991, he began playing guitar at the age of five and later studied jazz and ethnomusicology at Los Angeles County High School for the Arts and UCLA. Over the years, Julian has honed a distinct musical style that mixes catchy hooks with psychedelic, jazzy, and garage rock influences.

Since releasing early albums like *Youth* (2010) and *Grand Prize* (2012), he has developed a reputation for deeply personal, introspective songwriting. His 2014 album *Evil* showcased more full-band arrangements, while his self-titled 2025 release is nearly entirely a solo effort, reflecting on themes of growth and self-acceptance with a warm, lo-fi, intimate sound. In addition to his solo work, Cubillos has collaborated and produced for artists such as Little Mystery, Alena Spanger, Okkervil River, and Christian Lee Hutson, solidifying his role as a versatile figure in the indie music scene.
