Online Quarantine Sets: Version 101

With live music coming back, I'm not sure how many more of these online sets I'll be catching. Who knows, maybe I'll catch one or two more. 

Anyways, on to School Night's online sets. Julia Wolf opened it up this past Monday night. Her music had this Asian vibe to it. Even with that Asian vibe, her music lyrics were a mix of Italian and English. So hey, I'd call it world music, taking inspiration from various music genres around the globe. She played her set sitting on her bed with her tracks on the computer and a microphone held close. 

I loved how she had brief discussions before each song, providing insight into the music. One song was about her sister. Another about someone who unfollowed her on Instagram, but kept on viewing her Stories. 

Also, got to give props to the bedspread and pillow visuals. The bedspread had flower prints. The pillow had a skeleton.

Jubel is a duo from Stockholm, Sweden. I have a love affair with bands and musicians from Sweden -- such as Final Child. I love the way Jubel played with the camera angles during their pre-recorded set. Shots from the top. Shots shooting up from the ground. Shots that were level. It was like watching a music video.

Their songs had dance vibes. One song also had some Puerto Rican dance vibes. That song was a vacation song that had the waves washing across the imaginary beach shore.
