Julian Casablancas was born Julian Fernando Casablancas on August 23, 1978, in New York City. Casablancas is half-American and half-Danish. His father is Elite Model Agency Group founder John Casablancas, and his mother is model and former Miss Denmark Jeanette Christiansen. Since the marriage of his parents didn't last long, he was raised by his mother and her second husband, painter Sam Adoquei. It was Sam who introduced Julian to the Doors and helped him shape his early musical taste in a slightly different direction fromPhil Collinsand other mainstream pop artists present at the time. While Casablancas was at the Swiss boarding school Institut Le Rosey, he met his future bandmate, guitarist Albert Hammond, Jr., and in New York's Lycee Français high school, he also metFabrizio MorettiandNick Valensi. He never finished high school, but Julian got a GED and continued to take music classes at Five Towns College.
Julian formed the Voidz in 2013. Casablancas is the lead vocalist, and his bandmates are Jeramy "Beardo" Gritter and Amir Yaghmai on guitar, Jacob "Jake" Bercovici on bass (as well as a synthesizer), Alex Carapetis on drums and percussion, and Jeff Kite on keyboard. The Voidz released their debut album "Tyranny" in September 2014 on Julian's label Cult Records, followed by a tour across the United States and the United Kingdom. The album features the 11-minute single "Human Sadness." On March 30, 2018, they released their second album, "Virtue." The album features the track "Pyramid of Bones," which was featured on Adult Swim in April 2018, along with their single "Coul as a Ghoul" on the Adult Swim's Singles Program.
Julian Casablancas is an American singer and songwriter who has a net worth of $13 million. Julian Casablancas is best known as the lead vocalist and primary songwriter of the influential indie rock band the Strokes. The band's debut album, "Is This It" (2001), was a critical and commercial success, helping to revive garage rock and inspire a new generation of musicians. Casablancas' distinctive vocals and songwriting style were key to the band's success. The Strokes released several more well-received albums, including "Room on Fire" (2003), "First Impressions of Earth" (2006), "Angles" (2011), and "Comedown Machine" (2013).
Together with Hammond, Moretti, Valensi, and bassistNikolai Fraiture, Julian started playing in 1998 and formed the band the Strokes the following year. Their debut album "Is This It" (2001) was both a critical and commercial success and placed the band on the rock map alongside bands like the White Stripes and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. The band's next releases were 2003's "Room on Fire" and 2006's "First Impressions of Earth," which cemented their status among fans and made them go on a tour. However, all their albums released after their debut were not nearly as successful or acclaimed by fans and critics.
The band took a five-year break and then returned with their fourth album, "Angles," in 2011. Their five-year hiatus has been said to be the result of conflict within the band, solo projects, and various sobriety issues. After they released "Angles," they headlined at several music festivals, including Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Austin City Limits. The band released "Comedown Machine" in 2013 and an EP called "Future Present Past" in 2016 on Casablancas' own label, Cult Records. The Strokes kicked off their global comeback when they headlined at Bilbao BBK Live in 2019. They teased some new songs in May 2019, and in April 2020, they released a new album, "The New Abnormal," for which the band won their first Grammy Award for Best Rock Album.
