Based in Ottawa, Acadian singer-songwriter Julie Stella (she/her) describes her music as moody, sad girl vibes. Some might describe her songs as nostalgic, while others might say they're achingly familiar. Julie writes songs to dig through the complex layers of loss, grief and acceptance. Growing up in a small town in New Brunswick, Julie was drawn to music of all genres, but a few musical acts undeniably left their mark on her. Artists like Alanis Morissette, Fiona Apple, Chantal Kreviazuk and The Cranberries; women with strong voices who are vulnerable and who have something to express.
