SHOW REVIEWS: “Outstanding evening, superb voice and brilliant musicianship! I’ve seen many fine acts- Steeleye, Fairport, etc… and you’re right up there with the very best.” (David) " The songs the band played were outstanding! Excellent musicians and vocals. Looking forward to hearing the new album when it's released." (Simon) 'Wonderland'..... from dreamy acoustic folk to driving progressive folk rock. With shared writing duties and excellent musicianship, both lyrically and instrumentally these folks know how to create an atmosphere and they’re clearly gifted storytellers. “Julie’s vocals are so clear and pure and beautifully sung and everything that backs her is entwined in a melodic entangled delight…There are influences from members of the band and it becomes obvious who has penned which track, Steve Rezillo written numbers hold lead breaks that take you away and hold you suspended before Julie comes in again with the lyrical voice of a lark in flight”- (Vince) “Julie July and her band have delivered a first-rate collection of contemporary Folk-Rock music. Quality songs, superb vocals and forthright lyrics delivered with skill, technique and conviction. Perfectly conceived, recorded and superbly realised - this is proof that she is one of the brightest talents in the UK right now” John O’Regan Journalist & Broadcaster - fRoots, Living Tradition, LCCR. “Julie’s vocals are so clear and pure and beautifully sung and everything that backs her is entwined in a melodic entangled delight…There are influences from members of the band and it becomes obvious who has penned which track, Steve Rezillo written numbers hold lead breaks that take you away and hold you suspended before Julie comes in again with the lyrical voice of a lark in flight”- Vince (Fan)
