Good News!!! Julie Durden is working on my next album that is expected to release Spring 2009. The album titled "Live Your Life" is produced and co-written with Jordan Mohilowski of "StorySideB". This Album will be the best material yet.
Julie Durden- with three full length, original, albums under her belt, is a must see singer/songwriter. Her Debut CD "Simple Things" released July 2003...a deep -rooted lyric based project, has captured the attention of so many listeners across the states. This album includes a song written and performed by Julie, titled "Heaven" which in 2004 was chosen to appear in the independent film, "Saving Sophie", (written and produced by Lorraine Portman -Portman Productions, Inc.) Julie lived in Nashville for three years and performed in many hot spots in the area. She moved back to Jacksonville and has created a large fan base internationally. Julie travels back and forth to Nashville every month to work on some great songwriting and it paid off in her latest album, “FREE”.
Julie Durden’s release of her third album in July 2005 titled, “FREE”, is already receiving airplay in Seattle, WA. 94.1 KMPS FM, and local radio. The song that is receiving so much attention on the album is a true story about a deaf girl growing up, her niece Lindsey. Julie wrote this song with hit songwriter Tim Johnson out of Nashville and this song is capturing the hearts of everyone. "Perfect That Way" continues to be played and experienced internationally. Julie also has a co-written song with Lucio Rubino on the album that won a CMT/NSAI songwriting contest! There is also a song on this album “Front Porch” that tells her life story of how she has followed her dream after her Dad taught her to play the guitar. Julie is so proud of this new CD…she dove straight into the depth of her soul to give listeners the best experience they could have from twelve songs. This entire album has a very earthy, positive, truthful, and inspiring vibe. This CD has already proven to be an emotional success with fans.
Julie has been leading the stage with her original, acoustic alternative-country-pop feel, and an unlimited supply of original lyrics and acoustic drive, for the past twelve years. She has a sensitive and powerful way of getting out the dirt and beauty of life in her lyrics. It is often said by those who follow Julie’s music and style that they can relate because they are REAL life stories. They feel as though she writes her songs just for them, exclusively. Julie’s dedication, will, and faith, in doing what she loves, shows in her music. Julie Durden’s music will become part of your soul.
Congratulations!!!!!!!!! (Although I am wondering why it took you until 9:00 to tell me! No worries. I was napping anyway & I figured this would be the fastest way to get to you w/o texting.) I'm so proud of you!!!! Not quite sure why you are so surprised. You are AWESOME!!!!!!!
So maybe you could use the next two "hurricane days" to work on your next CD!!! Enjoy your time off-- I'm hoping Clay closes, haha... but stay safe also! You are close to the beach!!!
hey julie, popped "free" and "simple things" in my cd player this morning and keep listening to them over and over. ah, love love love. can't wait to hear the new album. miss you :)
Yaay! Baby names! You two better not be those kind of people who wait to tell everyone else the name until the baby is ACTUALLY named... you know I can't handle that!
Hey Julie, it's cool of you to add me. Make sure you add my other site @ www. myspace. com/brettmanningrocks I'm blessed to have you as a friend. Your music is moving!!!
Durden!! I'm lovin the new songs!! I was going to tell you that earlier, but then I discovered that we were not friends! p.s. I did relay for life out here but it just wasn't the same! everyone pretty much left by 3am. It was kinda sad. Anyways, I hope all is well!
Amazing performance as always. I wish you could hear Kyle's reaction after every song of "How does she get so much better every performance?" and his attempts at hitting the notes like you did...he admited he is jealous of you now lol. Anyway glad i got to come and i can't wait for the next ones. =)
