Julie Christensen’s story is woven into decades of Roots Music. More than most American vocalists, Julie Christensen has danced around issues of idiom, convincing us of her commitment to the musical moment, whether it be twangy post punk in the ‘80s L.A. band Divine Horsemen or as a longtime ally/singer in the poetic world according to Leonard Cohen. On her own two feet as a solo artist, Christensen has been quietly creating a vocalistic aesthetic based on the idea of a simple and liberated American style, granting herself license to visit turfs of pop, soul, punk, country and yes, Jazz. Julie Christensen and Terry Lee Burns' musical collaboration and friendship has spanned decades. It is only right it should be embodied in this stunning new album, “The Price We Pay For Love,” due for release April 14, 2023 Wide range of influences inform this genre-hybrid, showcasing Julie’s butterscotch vocals in dialogue with Terry’s acoustic bass and his string arrangements. Julie enlisted many longtime musician friends to perform and write for this project, a labor of love years in the making. “Julie Christensen is a Nordic Zephyr. Get her!” - Van Dyke Parks "Julie is gold. Solid. Gold.” - Chuck Prophet
