Julia Rich

"my lipstick is my axe" is only partially true. i also rely on gig dresses. ----- and i'm a singer. my regular gig is with the glenn miller orchestra, the swing band that was sort of the beatles of the '40s in that they had so many hits and the kids loved their music. the gmo was awarded the first and second gold records ever for "chattanooga choo choo" and "in the mood." ----- and i'm a songwriter. i wrote my first song in college--it's called "lady, i love you." the glenn miller orchestra currently performs 5 of my original tunes, and "music choice" features several of my tracks on their "singers and standards" channel. ----- review snips: (1) "Julia Rich...proves to be a very intelligent songwriter who can come up with a lot of witty tunes about love and life, such as 'If I Spoke French' and 'Boyfriends."- Jerome Wilson - Cadence Magazine - February 2004 --- (2) "I became an immediate fan of Julia Rich after seeing her perform with the Glenn Miller Orchestra a few months ago. She has an elegant, unaffected style that I find very appealing. - - After listening to 'Witch Hazel,' I learned that Ms. Rich's skills as a singer are matched by her skills as a songwriter....Julia Rich is not only a singer and songwriter with considerable talent but is also a highly intelligent woman with a great deal of insight..." - George H. Smith - Amazon.com - January 2008 --------- my songs are my stories; that's all i can tell. - jbr
