Coming Events

gigs

The COVID epidemic has hit musicians hard this year. We feel it is in the best interest of everyone that we limit our gigs to outside events only. With the onset of winter, those gig days are limited. We will try and reach out with some live streams on Facebook whenever we can and if weather permits, perhaps an outside gig. But, we will be back when the weather breaks in the spring and hopefully we will be entertaining friends and family in person at that time.

Launch Party

We plan on a full-blown CD launch party in the spring. Performing songs from our CD with full band accompaniment. It should be awesome. We'll keep you posted.

Julie Dean Julie Martin Dean grew up singing in church. After a dozen years and two degrees in singing classical music, she came back to her Southern Gospel roots a few years ago with a new found love of old country and Americana music. With training in a variety of musical styles, Julie is a singer for hire about town, and you can often see her at local open mics singing her favorite pop/jazz/country tunes, or songs of her own. One of her favorite gigs is singing regularly with the Tosco Music Party sing-along choir. www.juliedeanvoicestudio.com
