A Wolf’s Passion for Music & Fashion
Studio composition alumna Julia Capello ’18, aka Julia Wolf, has attracted a following with her music hitting millions of streams and more than 420k monthly listeners on Spotify. She’s also venturing into fashion with her brand Girls in Purgatory.
Her latest single, High Waist Jeans, recently sparked a collaboration with the brand Levi’s for a product giveaway that will also benefit women in shelters.
Wolf has also teamed up with Jackson Foote ’15 (studio production) to produce her music.
Below is an excerpt from a feature story on The Beat, written by Gabrielle Bohrman ’21.

Her bio reads “Laidback but I don’t front,” a line from her recent song “Magsafe,” that describes her shy, but authentic personality. A quick scroll through her Instagram reveals more ingredients of her brand identity: campaign photos for her recently launched clothing line, Girls in Purgatory; videos of her freestyle sessions, accompanied by her own fist pounds and snaps beat.
