Download Julie Durden @ iTunes! "Three Wishes Left" video can be seen at www.peaceplease.com. This song and slideshow is out there to promote peace, forgiveness, and change in our world. Good News!!! I am working on my next album that is expected to release Fall 2008 or early 2009. The working title... "It's A Good Day To Wake Up"... inspired by a song just written after an emotional journey. This Album will be the best material yet. Julie Durden- with three full length, original, albums under her belt, she 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 ten years. She has a sensitive and powerful way of getting out the dirt and beauty of life in her lyrics. Julie has been writing her own music and playing her guitar and mandolin and writing songs since she was nine years old. It is often said by those who follow Julie’s music and style that they can relate to the 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.
