Jule is a guitarist, singer, songwriter, lecturer at the Carl Maria von Weber Music School in Dresden, as well as organizer and artistic director of the Giengen Guitar Festival in Germany. Born in Heidenheim, Germany, she began playing guitar at age seven after watching her mother captivate a whole crowd of children in kindergarten with songs, a voice, and a guitar.
Moments that conjure true encounters and moving experiences and memories are what Jule’s music seeks to give her audiences with her virtuosic guitar playing and extraordinary voice. She effortlessly moves between different styles of concert guitar, complex fingerstyle arrangements, vocalisms, and her songs that she sings with great passion and poetry.
Her solo performances feature her self-written songs alongside original arrangements of covers. Jule’s long-anticipated new album, Seagull, will be released on April 5, 2024. All but three songs on the album are originals written by Jule. The album reflect a personal journey - from finding the courage to pursue dreams, to navigating storms along the way, to flying on and trusting in yourself.
Jule's 2nd single, "Soulfriend", interweaves her hauntingly beautiful voice with a contemplative nylon baritone guitar arrangement. The song reminds us that in the flow of life, sadness is redemptive and those we love are never entirely gone.
