| For more than 20 years, diva Julia Nixon has been a fixture on the Washington, D.C. music scene and beyond. "Julia & Company" was the resident group at the popular Mr. Henry's nightclub. Her tremendous vocal power has inspired comparisons with such artists as Aretha Franklin, and Tina Turner, and earned her the lead role in the Broadway production "Dreamgirls". Julia, with her impressive four and a half octave range, idolized Leontyne Price, as a young girl. This early inspiration led to Julia studying opera for seven years. Julia attended the North Carolina School of the Arts until southern soul, and the Motown sound won her over. These experiences contribute greatly to her versatility and emotional depth. Whether an intimate audience at Washington's well renowned Blues Alley, or 6'000 at New York's celebrated Radio City Music Hall, Julia's artistry consistently garners praise. |
