Not long to go now!!!

It's come around so fast!!  Only two weeks to go til my new album 'Julia Biel' is released.  Some lovely reviews trickling through already including this very comprehensive one from Jazz in Europe.  If you've already ordered your CD via this site or via bandcamp or elsewhere, your CD will be dropping through your letterbox on 9th February or shortly after - and if you haven't yet, well, get involved!  If you do so right now, you can be part of the build-up to the big day :) 

There's so much going on behind the scenes - I've been working on a new video for 'Always' (the photo here is a still from it) - I can't wait for you to see the whole thing!  Any day now....

You can listen again here to my little chat with Jamie Cullum on his BBC Radio 2 show (14.30 mins in)... Next week there's full band live session being recorded for BBC Radio 4's Loose Ends programme... I'll be in Paris for a few days in the week of the launch and in Germany for a few days the following week doing a full round of interviews and radio sessions...  Meanwhile the ball is well and truly rolling in the Netherlands where 'Wasting Breath' has just been playlisted on NPO R2!  Later in the month it's back to Germany for a full band live session on breakfast TV. 

If you see me anywhere, hand me a bottle of water and give me a thumbs up like I'm running the marathon!!!  Thanks for all your support everyone, I couldn't do it without you.  The tour diary is filling up fast for the rest of the year so I really hope to see you somewhere along the way!

Love

Women Make Music

Including this one!  I'm really proud and grateful to have been awarded funding from the PRS Foundation's Women Make Music Fund towards the costs of releasing album number 3 in the UK.

Review of show at NCEM, York!

Just before Christmas we squished the band and gear back into the trusty Vauxhall Astra Estate and headed up the M1 to York.  First ever time in York and I think we got on pretty well!  Thanks to everyone who turned out to see us on the last saturday before Christmas and of course thanks to Liam Wilkinson of Northern Sky Mag for this lovely review
