On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Julia Sabra! She is a singular force in Beirut, one of the cornerstones of their incredible music scene. We talk about her solo work, her groups Snakeskin and Postcards, and the former’s recent collaboration with Felisha Ledesma, among many other things. Then, we chat about Sufjan Stevens, Grouper, Mozart, Hen Ogledd, Charbel Haber & Fadi Tabbal, Beach Boys, Charles Aznavour, Big Thief and plenty more!
