Julia Darling

Julia Darling is one of those rare artists who can build a career out of the shadows of the label system. With a crystal clear voice and a lyrical style that is at once poetic and approachable, Julia shines as the voice of the urban singelton. After months in the studio her album was met with glorious reviews... and lackluster sales. Darling's contract was not renewed and she found herself stranded in New York, with no hits, no producer, no manager and no label. For many artists this might have been the end of the story, but it would not be the end of Julia Darling. Her self-titled new album took shape as a collaboration with friends, financed by a few loyal fans. Darling found inspiration in the songs of Bob Dylan, John Lennon and Leonard Cohen, describing their songs as emotional stories cloaked in poetry. She wants her audience to hear her songs not as her story, but as their own.
