Julianne: a woman
with her own voice |
|
By Rome Jorge
THANK God she’s not another
hyped-up “bossa-nova,” “acoustic” or “soul” diva. Major
record label producers have been cynically force-feeding the music
market with performers specifically packaged to satisfy the demand
in certain musical trends. Most don’t write their songs and simply
cover foreign hits. Self-proclaimed “bossa-nova,” “acoustic”
or “soul” divas often don’t possess a deep understanding of
their supposed genre.
So now we’ve got Julianne, a
singer-songwriter from out of the blue, breaking ground with her
debut album Grateful and its carrier single with music video titled
“Tulak ng Bibig.”
