A quick note about tonight’s show at The Slowdown…

Polyvinyl artist Julia Jacklin’ last album, 2022’s Pre Pleasure, received a tasty 7.4 from Pitchfork, but it’s her 2019 album, Crushing, that made the biggest splash thanks to the single “Pressure to Party.” She’s got a sweet, laid-back style that’s less tortured than the stuff you hear from Phoebe’s Saddest Factory crew. Check out MarQ Manner’s interview with Jacklin at The Reader website. Opener Macie Stewart is described as “experimental indie pop,” and has worked with the likes of SZA and Chance the Rapper. This main room show starts at 8 and will run you $27.
