THREE CROWS MUSIC Artist Biography Julianna Raye New York born and east coast raised, Julianna Raye grew up with a creative talent that sought every opportunity for expression. Her early years included singing lessons, local theater and musical theater, but for this daughter of two family therapists, a career in the arts was not considered a viable option. She attended Duke University as a psych major because, she recalls "It seemed like the responsible thing to do, but when I went to a summer theater workshop" Julianna continues, "I felt like I was breathing again. It was then I realized where my passion lay and I wanted to persue it at all cost." Julianna relocated to Los Angeles. She began demoing her songs, and she persued acting opportunities. It wasn't long before she got a break guest starring on an ABC series. A few months later, she got a record deal. Julianna's debut project was as a solo recording artist for Warner Brothers. Entitled Something Peculiar, it was produced by Jeff Lynne (producer for Tom Petty, Roy Orbison, Paul McCartney, George Harrison...) and received a great deal of critical acclaim. Restless Night , her current project, another solo effort (save a duet with Rufus Wainwright,) was produced by Ethan Johns. Ethan has worked with such notable artists as Ryan Adams, The Counting Crows, Whiskytown, Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt. Julianna can also be heard on Mr. Adams' current release, "Gold." In between recording projects Julianna has developed her live show. In addition to dates across the country and an appearance on Mountain Stage, Julianna has performed extensively in L.A clubs. She has also performed in remarkably diverse venues including Toronto's NXNE music festival, Gallery openings hosted by the directors Mike Figgis and Harold Becker, a fashion show featuring Barrish & Nicholson designs, and for a private party held by Lawrence Kasdan. She has headlined a Conde Nast sponsored event at the beautiful D'Angelo Estate, as well as Details magazine's "Mondo Hollywood" party. Most recently she opened for The Counting Crows' Adam Duritz, and Remy Zero, at a 9/11 relief benefit in L.A.'s Sunset Room, hosted by the Independent Artists Cooperative. Two of Julianna's original songs can be heard in the film "The Contender" starring Jeff Bridges and Joan Allen. Her songs have also been featured in the inde-film "Better Living," starring Angelica Huston, "Live Nude Girls," starring Dana Delaney, and Kim Cattrall, the NBC movie "Hunt for the Unicorn Killer," "Shake Rattle and Rock" starring Renee Zelweger, and MTV's "Real Sex." She has co-written songs with composer Paul Haslinger (Tangerine Dream) and Kiki Dee, for their releases. Says Raye of Restless Night: "This is a collection of truly intimate and revealing songs. I've loosened up a lot over the years. Growing up has it's advantages. I think my songs are more sensual now, and they hit you on a deeper level. I'm more comfortable in my own skin and I think it shows." Check out the artist's website: http://www.oarfinrecords.com Track List: 1. The Man That Time Forgot 2. New Moon 3. Indigo River 4.
