Julie Gribble

With an infectious smile, and a genuine love of playing music and inspiring others, her Americana music has managed to gain rave reviews all across the US. A Gribble live show is like watching every emotion, every friend, every heartache and every joy pass through you and come out on a richer side. A quickly rising star not to miss!! Gribble is the face and music of Hotel Indigo's live podcast series and as Craig Ferguson said, on his show about her last record, So Typical, "It's Fantastic!"

A native of Atlanta, Georgia, Gribble was born with a rare and inviting personality. Music gives her the means to express it. She grew up writing poetry, which led to song writing. After only a dozen guitar lessons, she combined the two. It became her purpose. Gribble’s music has been featured on Lifetime movie “Dive at Clauson’s Pier,” popular Nickelodeon shows “Zoey 101,” “Drake and Josh” and their TV movie “Drake & Josh Go to Hollywood,” as well on "South of Nowhere" on Noggin and "Smallville" on the WB. Guest appearances include, 2005-The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson(CBS), The Tyra Banks Show(CBS),Queer Edge w/Jack E.Jett(QTN), 2006-Low Country Live(ABC),Your LA(NBC), 2007- The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson(CBS), Your LA(NBC), Good Day Atlanta(FOX5), and the TV Guide Channel. She received the 2005 LA Music Award for Best Adult Alternative Artist, 2nd place in the American Idol Underground competition which featured her as one of the Best Emerging Artists of 2006. She has also been featured in Music Connection Magazine’s Hot 100 unsigned bands for both 2005 and 2006, as well as the Top 25 demo critiques,2006. Julie's music can be heard at grocery and retail stores around the country. She also has had wide release on college and AAA radio stations.

Traveling solo to promote her current album, Gribble is touring the US. Julie recently has been touring the US for events for Barefoot Wine, Hotel Indigo, various clubs, and charity events with organizations such as Boys and Girls Club, Ape Action, Red Fern Farms, Watering Seeds, Atlanta Humane Society, and PAWS. More important than the thrill of an audience, she jumps at the opportunity to support a good cause. Julie’s always there, with her guitar in hand and a smile on her face. It’s not about her name in lights, it’s about telling her stories and touching those along the way. And people want to listen. “She was great, and I'm sure that a lot of us would have taken the rest of the afternoon to kick-back so that we could be mesmerized by her music,” Mike Zendan, Vice President and General Counsel, Muzak, LLC said after she performed at the Corporate Headquarters. Gribble has currently been signed on for deals with MUZAK and TruSonic. Also her latest release, Echoes in my Head, will have worldwide release in early summer, 2007.
