Chanteuse Julie Christensen has honed her chameleon craft. In hundreds of shows she has sung Joan of Arc to Leonard Cohen's flame. She's also sung with Steve Wynn, John Doe, Exene Cervenka, and recently with Van Dyke Parks. With Chris D., she headed up post-punk rockers Divine Horsemen. Others utilizing Julie's kaleidoscope talents have been as far-flung as Iggy Pop, PiL, Robben Ford, and k.d. lang.

Her acclaimed independent albums are a soulful hybrid of jazz, roots, and folk. The two latest offerings have been "Where the Fireworks Are"-- the poetry of emotion and politics stirred up together, and "Something Familiar", a collection of standards, ballads, and blues. Contributors include Greg Leisz and Headless Household. Julie, as well as drummer Kenny Wollesen and bassist Don Falzone, were also part of Came So Far for Beauty, the concert series featured in the Lion's Gate feature "Leonard Cohen: I'm Your Man"."
Her upcoming release, "Weeds Like Us" is due in February: an Americana offering with a soulful group of songs co-produced by multi-instrumentalist Jeff Turmes lately of Mavis Staples' band. "Weeds Like Us" features some of the best musicians working in the business today, and is a roots-driven roller coaster ride. Musicians include Greg Leisz, Rick Holmstrom, Josh Grange, Don Heffington, Debra Dobkin, Steve Mugalian, Donny Gerard, and Rick Shea.

Julie appeared in Allison Anders' Border Radio, Barry Levinson's Bugsy, and onstage at the Public and Florida Shakespeare in Sam Shepard's The Sad Lament of Pecos Bill on the Eve of Killing His Wife, and Simpatico.

"--one of the truer singers you’ll ever hear — straight up, no mannerisms, perfect taste; listen to... her piercing new Something Familiar, and recognize how she could sing with both Leonard Cohen and Chris D. " --Greg Burk  L.A. WEEKLY

“Simply put, this gal’s voice can raise every single hair on my body—
and all at the same time! Be it R&B, pop, rock, she can sing it all, and 
with style, too.” -- LA Weekly
                                    
"From the heart-wrenching title track, which serves up an aching dose of harsh reality, to the cascading piano that drives the plaintive “Something Pretty,” Where the Fireworks Are is a collection of songs spanning the emotional spectrum. It provides an evocative musical chariot for Christensen to weave her vocal magic." (Brett Leigh-Dicks) VC REPORTER
