Recording Artist

In 1997, Jully’s first taste of success came in the form of a Top 40 hit in Canada with the song “Rally’n”.  During this time she collaborated with artists such as Choclair, Kardinal Offishall, and Sean Paul, contributing to songs that enjoyed success on the Canadian music charts. At the age of 20, she joined Warner/Chappell Music Publishing where Jully penned songs for major artists such as Destiny’s Child and Nas. Continuing to write and record, Jully signed with Universal and released her first album in 2005.

In 2007, Jully garnished her first Top 10 single with “Seven Day Fool”, which was featured on her sophomore release “Revival” and went on to win R&B/Soul Recording of the Year at the 2008 Juno Awards.  2009 saw Jully exercising and perfecting her live performance as well as the release of her next collection of recorded material titled “The Black Book” which included the hit “Running”.

2010 brought Jully several opportunities to present her explosive live show to both domestic and foreign audiences: Opening the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancoucer, BC, landed an opening slot for Kanye West in Singapore, headlining Canada Day in London, England’s Trafalgar Square, hand picked to perform at private event for The Queen, receiving extraordinary reviews from critics and fans alike at the SXSW conference in Austin, TX, packing the house at the MIDEM conference in Cannes, France, and kicking off the FIFA world cup concert series and the annual Pride Festival, both held in Toronto.
