With a sultry voice that captivates from the first note, Julianne is a dynamic singer-songwriter

paving her own musical road with her first solo CD, It Aint Over (2010 Detroit Music Award
nominee for Outstanding Country Recording). Juliannes vocals and songwriting equally shine
on the CD, which has lead to her first music video for the song No Place For A
Lullabye, directed by Stephen Clark from WXYZ-TV in Detroit. The video and song
were used by HomeAid of America (22 chapters nationwide) in PSAs for their 2010 &
2011 campaigns to build temporary housing for the homeless. June 2011 brought
the release of Juliannes much anticipated second CD, Vivid.
Julianne burst onto CMA Fest 2011 in Nashville, hosting and performing on two stages. 2010 was a
banner year, as she garnered a top three country finalist spot in the Chris Austin Songwriting Contest with
a performance at MerleFest, was named a CBS Detroit "Best Of" country artist, and snagged the coveted
slot representing the Country genre in performance at the 2010 Detroit Music Awards. Nominated five
times as Outstanding Country Vocalist for the DMAs, Juliannes songwriting has been recognized with a
2011 & 2009 DMA nomination for Outstanding Country Songwriter and by taking honors in the 2008
and 2009 Great Lakes Songwriting Contest (2009 1
st
Place - No Place For A Lullabye). As well,
Cowboy Troy will be including a song co-written with Julianne in his 2011 tour with Big and Rich.

Following up on five years as lead singer of the Detroit country group REDHILL, a captivating solo
performer and audience favorite, Julianne has performed with the sax accompaniment of Grammy
winner Alto Reed (of the Bob Seger band) and was featured in several Alto Reeds All-Star Concerts
with Jeff Daniels, Mark Farner and Mitch Ryder. She has appeared live on television & radio shows, and
opened for John Michael Montgomery at Detroits DTE Music Theatre, Victoria Banks at the famous
Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, as well as Whitney Duncan, Phil Vassar, the McClymonts, Steve Azar, Zac
Brown Band, Darryl Worley, Telluride, David Nail, Julianne Hough.

Growing up on a large cattle farm and riding her horses in the rural thumb area of
Michigan, Julianne was raised on country music. She would often ride in the tractors
alongside her father when he worked the huge fields...and the radio was always on.
"There was always music in our lives. Dad would come home after a long day and one of
the first things he did was spend 10 minutes taking the days frustrations out at the piano.
I loved those moments listening to him play." Around age three, Julianne decided to teach
herself how to play the piano, and anyone that knew her growing up would often hear her
singing wherever she went.

She's a true American farmers daughter, granddaughter, and great granddaughter who loves to perform,
sing, and write songs. With names like Tubbs, Babcock, and Tremble in the family, it's no wonder
country music is in her blood!

Julianne is proud to be endorsed by Luna Guitars for over three years now, and she was a featured artist
on a 2008 retail store poster distributed by the company to dealers world-wide. Julianne has also
performed the national anthem for numerous sporting teams, including the Detroit Red Wings and
Detroit Tigers, the Toledo Mud Hens, and belted out nine seasons (2002-2010) as the anthem "Voice of
the Icehawks" for the Port Huron IHL hockey team.
"Julianne is what music is all about ... unique, talented, capable of singing with emotion, and
delivers a powerful, original message." - Tim Roberts, Program Director, WYCD-FM Detroit
"A red hot singer and stage presence to burn down the house" - Brian Harper, WSAQ-FM, WYCD-FM Detroit
"Julianne's songs are so honest and heartfelt, they hit the listener like a sucker-
punch directly to the soul. She pleads her case in a strong and vibrant voice,
wringing every nuance from her lyrics. A stand-up gal and an emotionally
committed writer/performer indeed!"
- Nolan Mendenhall,
Producer
