Song of the Day is sincerely pleased to showcase "Window" and the amazing lyrical and musical virtuosity of one Richard Julian. There are not a lot of video clips of #RichardJulian out there but fortunately this stint at a public radio station in #Charlottesville exists. I picked this clip because it's a beautiful song recorded very well. You can really hear his great voice, smart lyrics and witness his dexterity and tone on the guitar. Originally from #Delaware he is a classically trained pianist. There are other clips I'll list below of his music that you should explore. We are big fans of his and have several of his CD's. He currently is a partner at a club in #Brooklyn called #LunÁtico. If you are a local you know it and if you are passing through don't miss the opportunity to see him live. Apparently the food is top notch with a wide selection of quality #Tequila so what's not to like! His good taste goes beyond music. And why wouldn't an artist want to stop chasing venues and audiences and settle down at home and create weekly? Imagine the quality of #musicians that grace their stage. Yes unknown does not mean untalented. Sunday Morning in Saturdays Shoes is a favorite album of ours - there's a link to it on Pandora below.
The Man in the Hole is also a lovely tune and the link below is a great capture - the audio quality is great.
And the professionally shot Die in New Orleans is also listed below the result of his tenure in the Big Easy.
Spend some time with Richard Julian you won't regret it - you don't have to take my word for it:
"One of the best songwriters and record makers I've heard in a very long time." - Randy Newman
"Richard just knocks me out. Some of the coolest, smartest and original music I've heard in years." - Bonnie Raitt
"My favorite collection of songs by one of my favorite songwriters."
- Norah Jones
#SongofTheDay - enjoy!
