Julia Jacklin will tour North America this summer.

Julia Jacklin has shared her cover of Roland S. Howard’s enduring Aussie favourite Shivers.

“It’s been covered a lot, but it’s a special one for me,” Jacklin said. “It was one of the first songs I ever learnt to play.”




Many Sydney bars, venues and open mic nights have heard me sing this song. Howard wrote it at 16 and I’ve always loved how much the lyrics capture that type of unbridled, dramatic teenage infatuation. The kind that physically hurts but also makes you laugh at yourself.
