"Wing & A Prayer"
"Julie Blue is a Diva, choir director, composer and musical force bringing joy to many. This new album...conveys Julie's gospel soul and a great big tender heart. Liner notes include the words to all her songs, which offer us strength and encouragement to live our lives as fully as we can." Banyon Books Review
"The real star here is Blue's effective vocal prowess. Having spent most of her adult life teaching others how to find their voice, Blue has inadvertently found hers in creating a treasure which encompasses both her talents and spiritual beliefs. The whole CD has a catchy sing along connectedness to it and a special poignancy that's bound to make you feel a little more comfortable in your skin." John Beaudin, Shared Vision Magazine
"Wing and a Prayer, Julie's first singer-songwriter release after four albums of solo piano, soars with beautiful melodies and inspired lyrics." Lorne Mallin, The Vancouver Province

A Quote from Julie Blue (Wing and a Prayer)
"Wing and a Prayer" expresses my desire to send out an uplifting message of inspiration. I write songs to keep me connected to this force of inspiration and find great joy when I can share it with others. I believe that sound is a powerful means of transformation and that singing connects us directly to our souls. The songs on this CD mark an incredible time of growth in my life and are pasageways through loss, grief and sadness into gratitude, acceptance and hope.
Many of these songs have been sung and brought to life by
my friends in the Singspiration Singers, a 60 voice gospel choir that I direct. The language of music is a universal one and has brought riches untold in the form of friends, community, love and support into my life. When I am singing my songs and other poeple join in, I feel the songs themselves have found their purpose. So if the spirit moves you
