“Much like activist musicians like Joan Baez and Carly Simon, Julie sings as if there are no secrets between her and her fans. Often discussing socially charged topics such as politics, religion, women's right and mental health, Julie doesn't censor herself for the benefit of appeasing the music industry.”
