In listening to the new Julie Dexter project New Again I was struck by the fact that this is not background music. What I mean by that statement is that often music s experienced in a supplemental way, but this is one of those recordings where it would be very difficult just press play and occupy yourself with some other activity. New Again is the activity. Both music and lyrics are on equal footing here and the warmth of organic creative expression is the order of the day here. (more…)

GFM recently chatted with world renowned artist Julie Dexter about her latest project New Again, the arc of her career, what is great music and much more! Check out the single “Come On Home” after the interview and be on the lookout for a full album review.
