She won awards from both Billboard Magazine and Berklee College of Music for two of her earliest songs, was chosen as a semi-finalist in 2005’s Acoustic Live competition in Los Angeles, and also in 2005 was invited to take part in the prestigious NY Songwriters’ Circle. Her debut album, All Dressed Up (released in April 2005), featured 9 original songs and garnered immediate comparisons to, among others, Steely Dan, Prince, Alicia Keys, and Carole King. Reviewers praised her “soulful songwriting prowess” and “well-crafted lyrics” (Metronome Magazine), while fans consistently marveled at the fact that not a single track on the album is worth skipping – a rarity in today’s single-driven marketplace.
In their October 2005 cover story, Boston’s Metronome Magazine wrote “Juliet's songs offer the kind of music that should be heard in every club and venue throughout New England and beyond.” Venue by venue, city by city, Juliet is doing just that – bringing her songs to all who will listen. With plans for the follow up album already in motion, and the summer of 2006 rapidly filling up with festival dates and more touring, fans of this emerging artist have much to look forward to in the coming months.
