Sophisticated but never complicated. Intelligent but never intellectual. Juliet’s sound perfectly encapsulates the glamour of the jazz divas of a bygone age with a modern, sassy twist. It’s been described as a cross between India.Arie and Peggy Lee with a hint of Amy Winehouse but Juliet calls it “sophisticated music for stylish people” - Glam Jazz!
