Julian Fulton might be New Jersey's answer to boyish lo-fi charm. Along with harmonies supported by his Zombie Gospel, the artist croons his way over bouncing piano lines ('Junkie Song'), feedbacking guitar lines ('Lie), and self-effacing lyrics (every track) that only makes his music sound even larger for its tortured honesty. New record 'Heart & Arms' includes all this and even a Zombie Survival Kit filled up with even more tracks... because zombies hate music. Julian Fulton topped our emerging NYC artists submissions in the Songwriter/Rootsy Pop category with an average rating of 8 out of 10. - Mike Levine
