Julz A

Squeeze Rock is the moniker and genre tag of the musical styles of Julian “Julz-A” Hintz. Squeeze Rock is an Accordion alternative; Julz-A sings and raps while playing the Squeeze Box. The sound can be compared to such rapping proliferations as Beck, Outkast, Primus, and Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Julz-A uses the accordion as a central figure in the rock riffs of his songs. The Squeeze Rock sound is fundamentally alternative rock music with influences ranging from Hip-Hop to Western Classical music, while even leaving room for the world music of the instrument. Squeeze Rock pushes the envelope in how we hear melodic guitar-driven music. Using production methods that alter the way we listen to hip-hop and rapping with a musical laboratory of raw accordion polyphony. The presentation is simple and rooted in the pop sounds of the current century, but the use of accordion pushes this eclectic sound into the unique realm that only Squeeze Rock can dwell.
