I.m Julie Scott, singer/songwriter and vocal coach. I used to play in Mizpah and more recently in can_of_be.
I just finished recording my solo album with the crazy and talented producer Philip Pells from South Africa, with whom i ate kudu and drank coffee scented wine while travelling in his crazy country. The album is set for release at the end of this year.
I run my own music and theatre company with best mate and co-founder Roeland Drost, we have the craziest vocal course imaginable and write what we like to think of as weird and wonderful music for short films and art house-productions. We composed music for "Naakt hart"a drama based on the Coetzee..s novel "In the heart of the country" performed by theatre group Warber this autumn.
