Sans Soucis (they/them) makes music that invigorates the soul. Born out of a desire to reconnect with the uninhibited joyfulness and authenticity of childhood, their music is a radical act of reclamation. Free from the constraints of genre and with a wide gamut of sonic touchstones – from the effervescent electronics of Little Dragon, Solange Knowles’s alt-R&B, the emotional edge of Joni Mitchell and the robust pop melodies of Rihanna – Sans Soucis’s world is one overflowing with eclectic musical textures, pertinent lyrics and a refreshing dose of hopefulness.

These releases were interspersed with new achievements. Along with a string of standout shows at Pitchfork Paris, Eurosonic, SXSW and a support slot for Rina Sawayama in Milan, Giulia won the Grand Jury Prize at the 2023 Music Moves Europe awards. They were also recognised by two music giants – both as Spotify’s Radar artist, with a billboard in Times Square, and Ticketmaster’s Breakthrough Act in 2023.

Throughout it all, Giulia was mulling over their debut album 'Circumnavigating Georgia'. It was clear that their first full-length project had to be a concept album exploring their coming of age. In order to fulfil this vision, they studied plotting and scriptwriting in order to transpose their life  into a narrative structure. “I grew up singing in the theatre so I wanted to create a spectacle out of what this album is about,” they add.
