Julia Rainer is a Singer/Songwriter who combines her powerful, yet sultry, voice with her Neil Young style guitar playing to create a unique sound. Her lyrics are dark and emotional, and her sound combines folk, soul, blues, and the bare bones country sound of Hank WIlliams.
Julia has been playing and writing music for 14 years. She has played in almost every small venue in Philadelphia, and in many of the surrounding cities of the Northeast. Julia gained her musical experience touring the U.S. playing classic rock covers with the School of Rock. She has accompanied famous musicians, such as Ann Wilson, Eddie Vedder, Marky Ramone, Peter Frampton, and Steve Perry.
