[OiAWayOfLife]

[julestof]

Cantante e interprete straordinaria, potrebbe anche cantare le Pagine Gialle e trasformarle in poesia... Un fan italiano

[fleetwooddunley]

I just love that she didn't have a setlist!

[poocoop]

Unique.

[happylilsunbeam]

She's fantastic. So unique and haunting.

[whales]

what a talented goofball; the best kind

[haydenarias]

Dave Grohl?

[vladchong]

She sounds exactly like Kimya Dawson!

[mazdamaniac90]

@vladchong On some notes she does.

[glennykins28]

I think she's lovely

[MastodonDR]

This is lame. Shes hardly a musician, and her singing is average at best. Pfffffttt....

Wouldnt stand a chance against my record collection. Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Mazzy Star,

[metallicarules2324]

@MastodonDR they don't sing in french though



[91mperez]

Could someone tell me the chords to this song please?

[longboardRAVE]

God this woman is beautiful in every way imaginable

[Silvietts]

[sullyuno]

[normlnj]

@sullyuno

hahaha yes!!

[xdrukqs]

JULIE I LOVE YOU

[darinschnabel]

Hagstrom

[sleepandsounds]

Adorable is an understatement. I would propose to this woman. Does anyone know what guitar she is using, I tried to see the label but i don't recognize it, says something like "kagtrom"?

[futoncat]

The power chords in this don't really do it for me either. I would have gone with plucking the notes instead of that awkward slide thing...

[yourdogsmusic]

Hooray for ghost notes!!

[nihilistichick]

julie is the shit and probably one of the most eccentric and beautiful people you'll meet. Ever, she is truly an artist and great musician. i love her like my mom or something.

[LSUsuperBuick]

I don't know, i'm a musician and i found this sort of weird that people are just accepting her mess-ups and her terrible timing on the guitar on the first song and the fact she only uses power chords. She is way too raw and needs some tidying up when it comes to performing.

[musiccritic72]

@LSUsuperBuick She's an artist not a musician. Huge difference. although i do agree the power chords don't fit right in this song. lyrics are good though so thumbs up.

[yourdogsmusic]

@LSUsuperBuick So would you call Neil young's idiosyncratic solos terrible? Would you call Elliott Smith's guitar-playing sloppy? Come on, stop bein' a wanna-be guitartist douche-cock.

[everythiiiiing]

dat girl gotta good voice. although, it's too bad you don't have to have talent to be on NPR, you just have to be trendy as FUCK.

[homegrown30]

lucky baby

[itsalljustaride]

the music is ok, but the cameraman needs lessons. too many way-too-tight shots where she sways in-out-in-out-in-out of frame. makes me nauseous. please use sparingly.

[elcasaysno]

@itsalljustaride I think it looks beautiful and intimate. It speaks a lot about one's character... if you can listen to something this honest and have the sense of self-importance to call someone's art "ok".

[LSUsuperBuick]

@elcasaysno She's very mediocre when it comes to guitar though. She's also very insecure it seems lol.

[iloveartimus]

This is very cool and different, I like it.

[CrimsonEmpire]

love her voice.

[NadStrange]

love it!

[NodeNorth]

I walked through the forest with a man recently who told me about being a director in theater for over twenty years. He said that when people perform they are taking in the parameters of their role and filtering it through their own lives, the expression of which we see onstage. In the best instances, it is not 'acting' or 'fakery' but rather an exhalation of lived experience. This video reminded me of that beautiful walk in the woods."

[nihilistichick]

how insightful NOdenorth.

[madrugafrosh]

I love the mess ups in this video. Makes her seem so human and real. Can't wait to see her and Herman Dune in Ottawa on the 26th! Both are my favorite artist/bands so its sort of a dream concert for me. Good to see a New Brunswick gal on the music scene too, still waiting for the coincidence of seeing her when I go home and around and NB.

[13expose13]

@madrugafrosh It's called practicing. Making mistakes during a show is kind of disrespectful to the audience. You should have ironed out your mistakes before putting on a live show. By praising mistakes all you are doing is lowering the bar for musicians in the future.

[bkglamb]

@13expose13 I would agree if it were a normal concert, but in small gatherings like that it makes it more personal. It's a lot easier to hide a mistake on a stage in front of thousand and correct yourself with no one really noticing than it it is in front of only a handfully of people. She has a great voice, nice guitar playing, I like her!

[13expose13]

@bkglamb Fair answer. Just to clear things up, my comment was not specifically aimed at this girl in particular. I meant it generally, this girl's mistakes are actually quite minor. But I still mean what I said, an audience that is given copper and takes it as gold will continually be given copper.

[bkglamb]

@13expose13 My comment wasn't meant just for her either. Ah, yes, but you forget copper is still valuable, whether excepted as gold or whatever else! And golden music is still golden, even if it is only seen as having the value of copper!

[podisracer]

At everything!

[podisracer]

i heard french girls are the best!

[cedar688]

passionate...in every sense

[andriiaxox]

agreed! ;)

[andriiaxox]

agreed! ;)

[timurlikir]

amazing

[jrdyyyy]

ahhh! julie's so nervous!

[bluntmasterflash]

nice, it's good to see people still make music without a giant corporation behind them, too bad they only get on NPR, it's a damn shame, I've listened to top 40 all day at work this is such a relief

[victor2eflt]

nice songs

more niceble if the letters were written in

[cblcbl00]

extreme sensitive

[loupquichant]

Fresh and unvarnished. Straightforward. Where'd she come from?
