"Sensational yet subtle. A singer to die for who creates an urgent need for superlatives yet to be invented."

Meet Julie Dexter, a world renowned, award winning, British vocalist considered by many to be one of the most influential female vocalists of our generation. She has shared the spotlight with a host of cutting edge artists, including Mint Condition, Jill Scott, Bilal, Omar, Loose Ends, Rachelle

Ferrell, Ledisi, Eric Roberson and Raheem DeVaughn

to name a few.

 

Born and raised in Birmingham, England, this

classically trained artist composes and arranges

her own music.  Influenced by  legends such as

Nancy Wilson, Abbey Lincoln, and Bob Marley,  as

well as popular icons Omar and Sade, Julie takes

classic soul to the heart of Artistry

 

Fans and critics across the globe have followed her journey  through the circles of  Jazz, Soul, Broken-Beat, Bossa-Nova, Reggae and Afro-Beat. Her dynamic voice was first heard in 1994 on "The Jamaican Beat" Vol I with Jazz Jamaica.
