back to bio page

Jules, being the band's latest addition, brings new life to the band and new luck. Young, spirited, she's equally comfortable doing jazz standards, traditional bluegrass or pop. Not to mention, she bribed us with free beer during auditions. She has performed in D.C. with Brickhouse and in Boston with the ephemeral Basil Cleveland performing exorcisms and speaking in tongues.
Jules graduated from George Washinton University, where she minored in Jazz. She studied jazz piano and voice with Jim Levy and Pam Bricker.

Along with her jazz background she sites influences such as:Ella Fitzgerald, Janis Joplin, Moby, Ani Difranco, Laura Nyro, Radiohead, Sigur Ros, The Clancy Brothers, The Cranberries, Neutral Milk Hotel, Leonard Cohen, Queen, and claims to play banjo and one really rockin' cowbell.

Jules likes: making cookies, sewing, and rejecting drunk frat boys
