Julia performs her newest song 'The Day the Dinosaur Went Down'

Okay, maybe not THE newest one in the bag, but new enough, and not yet recorded! Here's Julia performing live on The Drive with Steve Jaxon, September, 2008, Santa Rosa, CA.

Julia Francis is a pop balladeer with a fever for rock n roll. Her latest work, Lucky Penny, was co-produced by Violent Femmes drummer Victor DeLorenzo, and Mike Hoffmann in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 2007. Eleven new songs feature these and other world-class musicians such as legendary drummer Vinnie Colaiuta (Frank Zappa, Joni Mitchell, Sting); drummer Ben Smith (Heart); bassist Andy Stoller (Tracy Chapman); and guitarist Jeff Fielder (Sera Cahoone). Released on April 18, 2008, it's available at iTunes, www.juliafrancis.com, CDBaby.com, and many other online retailers. Julia Francis sound has been likened to contemporary acts such as Alanis Morissette, Natalie Merchant and Aimee Mann; and such classic performers as Tom Petty, Joni Mitchell and Buffy Sainte-Marie.

Francis has a lovely voice somewhere between Joni, Carole, Jenny Lewis and Natalie Merchant. It also has a touch Cowboy Junkies about it.

All the great singers hold up the story and make you feel like it isnt singing at all but rather sharing a secret with you. Julia does that in her sleep.
