Inspired by industrial landscapes, wastelands and Brutalist architecture, Studios resident Julie Campbell is an artist who seeks out unusual or dilapidated spaces in which to record and make work. Her post-punk influenced debut album, Nerve Up and recent funk and dance-inspired follow-up Hinterland both received widespread critical acclaim. All four singles released from Hinterland reached the 'A' Playlist on BBC6 Music and she received a Sky Arts nomination for Best Breakthrough Artist. Julie also works in other mediums which complement and offset her music including installations, immersive live events and video.
