Canadian Singer/Songwriter Julia Carlucci reveals the music video for her new single, ‘Take Me Down.’ The record tells a tale about the “inner struggle with love’s uncertainty and the age-old battle of head-versus-heart.” In the Merik Williams-directed clip, Julia takes the centerstage spotlight as she commits to bringing that record to life.
Julia explains: “‘Take Me Down’ is about falling for someone you know you shouldn’t. It’s when your head knows better but your heart is too curious to walk away. Although the lyrics are vulnerable, I always imagined the song with a strong sound and upbeat vibe, so the production needed to be just right. It needed to have that throwback feel but still punch like a contemporary pop record and I think we definitely achieved that.”
