Biography

Montreal born artist Julie Crochetière (Julie C) has given herself the creative freedom to trust her instincts and have fun on her new album Steady Ground. The singer-songwriter, who has explored the world of pop in Sugar Jones and soul-jazz on her solo debut A Better Place, is now creating a contemporary soul sound with a hint of cool, club and sex appeal.

Produced by Ron Lopata (Tommy Swick, Lindi Ortega), who played for years with the late Haydain Neale (Jacksoul), the album ranges from the first single Tomorrow, a crafted verse-chorus song inspired by her first trip to Jamaica, combined with the culture of slowing down to Ooh La La, an energetic fun and funky song about owning your femininity. Steady Ground, a soulful clap-along, originally recorded on her iPhone, while Apple Tree was written within 20 minutes of watching the love story Benjamin Button.

“Previously I’ve stayed in very comfortable waters and this record is me pushing my boundaries,” Julie says. “I’m tackling my fears on this album, singing high and bringing out the powerful woman in me. It feels fun and more youthful. I tend to think myself into a frenzy, but I’m not such a heavy person. I like to laugh and have fun and I don’t think that’s been represented as much in my previous work.”
