This Blues-Based Rock and Roll band got started by a chance meeting at a Karaoke dive bar. So...we've coined Sometimes Julie as a "Dive Band!" The band's name originated from that same place; however, it took about 6 months before they figured out what to call it. Monica and Rick casually tell that story in this episode. Basically, as Monica puts it, "We're all just aspiring to be Julie." They began as just the two of them but quickly expanded their sound while developing the band's focus. Sappy love songs were the start of Monica's writing, but the team worked together on their writing and developed "Head First," an album that ended up winning them multiple awards!
We play three songs off of their newest album titled "Breaking" and break down (pun not intended) their writing and inspirations. Especially one line that Big Jon picks up on. The power and emotion they pack into these songs might give you chills or inspire you...and the musicianship of their complement might just blow your mind. Alberto with his monster leads and Bruce with his killer bass lines. Their drummer is new, so we don't get to hear John's licks quite yet, but they're heading into the studio for more recordings soon, and you can always find out where to go and see them at www.sometimesjulie.com
