Julia Davo isn’t the kind of artist you can box in, and that’s exactly the point. Born and raised in New York, Julia was busking on the streets of Brooklyn, armed with nothing but her quirky vocal style and a gift for theatrical storytelling. Those same qualities eventually carried her across the country to Los Angeles, where her shapeshifting artistry and unapologetic edge have found a home.


Her latest single, “Media,” is proof of why Julia is impossible to forget. The track exploded on TikTok, resonating with fans who saw themselves in the lyrics about being a “freak,” a “geek,” and even a “girl on the stair.” It’s a song that pulls you in with its animated energy and keeps you hooked through clever wordplay, bold storytelling, and vocals that stretch between vulnerability and power.


The record stands out because it’s not just a song, it’s an experience. Every line feels carefully crafted yet raw, as if Julia is both inviting you into her diary and daring you to look away. For many listeners, especially women, the message hits deeply: grappling with self-image, outside perceptions, and the contradictions of living authentically in a world that tries to put you in a box. “Media” isn’t afraid to hold up the mirror, and that honesty is what makes it so magnetic.


Musically, the track brings something the industry has been missing. The production is bold and cinematic, pairing perfectly with Julia’s animated vocal delivery. The tones, the moods, and the almost theatrical shifts in her voice create a soundscape that feels alive. It’s the kind of record that doesn’t just sit in your headphones, it moves through you, leaving echoes long after the final note.


And this is only the beginning. Julia Davo has a brand-new EP on the way, continuing her mission to “comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable.” Fans won’t have to wait long either, her next single “Muse” is set to drop on September 19th, 2025. If “Media” is any sign, we’re in for something just as daring, emotional, and unforgettable.


Julia Davo isn’t just making music; she’s building a world where freaks, geeks, and dreamers belong. And with songs like “Media,” it’s a world we all want to step into.



“Media” is out now on all streaming platforms. Keep your ears open for “Muse,” arriving September 19th.
