Song of the Week
From Julia Marcell's website: "My name is Julia and I write songs - that's what I do most of the time when I don't sing. So out of these made up little tunes sometimes something worthwhile is born and these are what I call classical punk songs. Classical because of my intentions, punk because of the execution. Mostly they are stories - I write them simple to make sure everyone gets them, but still not too simple to make sure everyone gets them in a different way. These songs-stories are very different from each other, so to balance things out, I like to have modest instrumentation - natural, organic sounds of wood, string, finger hitting a piano key and voice whispering, cracking, breathing - this is the world of sounds that excites me.

In October 2007 I reached 50k on SellaBand, a website where people invest money in future albums of independent artists. Thanks to the money of 657 people I recorded my debut album in Berlin with producer Moses Schneider and it came out fantastic - raw and full of energy, recorded live with all the room sounds, accidents and mistakes. If you get ready for this meeting, it might like you. For good..."

Very soon after Julia Marcell signed up on SellaBand, she became a phenomenon. Investors were coming fast, and she reached her recording budget in a very short time, after only three months. And it is no wonder - her songs, at the same time very original and very easy to listen to, in a way minimalistic and still filling the listener's ears with a richness of sounds, with lyrics that sound easy but after a couple of listens make you go: "aha! that!"

Julia Marcell has been compared to Kate Bush, Björk, Regina Spektor. The biggest similarity between her and these artists would be that they are all original, daring and unforgettable. Contrary to what she sings in another song, Jack the Ripoff (perhaps tongue-in-cheek?), you cannot really say about any of her songs that "it sounds like this and it sounds like that". Julia's style is her own, unforgettable, sensitive and powerful at the same time. Her songs to many have proven addictive, so you keep listening to them until you know them by heart; yet when you have a chance to attend one of her live performances, you feel as if you have never heard them before.

In spring 2009 Julia Marcell, right after her tour in the Netherlands, Julia flew off to Tokyo to collaborate with a Japanese composer Michiru, writing some of the lyrics and singing on a few of the tracks on Michiru's new album World's End Village.
