Laden with groove and popping with confidence, Losing My Perfection is the anthemic new release from Julia Shuren.

Julia Shuren may have already shown her prowess as a songwriter, having featured in PBS ‘Detroit Performs’ and had her cover of Like It Is reposted by Kygo, but we’re only at the beginning of the journey. At the same time as pursuing a Master’s in Music Composition at NYU, she is also gearing up to release a solo EP later this year. In advance of it, she shares her compelling new single, Losing My Perfection, and it’s an anthemic single that will simultaneously empower you and draw you to the dance floor.

Snappy beats create an easygoing introduction, before syncopated bass lines fill in the gaps with their grooviness. The melody combines the best of pop and R&B, delivered through velvety vocals, to smoothly slither into your consciousness and make you lose your inhibitions to the intoxicating sounds of the track. Singing about the constraining expectations that are often externally imposed by society, Julia urges you to shake those shackles off and find your authenticity to live the life you want – a deed that is made much easier when you have the encouragement of this track behind you. Explaining this in slightly further detail, Julia notes:

‘Losing My Perfection’ is an anthemic song stating exactly that – “losing perfection” by saying screw all the expectations we deal with in society today through social media, and the general culture of portraying our “perfect” selves.
