Julianne Tanella has always written music and dreamed of being a well-known artist. When asked about her music, she said, “I have finally found the right people, the right sound, the right energy to share my music. I have always written music… but these songs have always lived as small notebook scraps in the bottom of my backpack. I had never taken the time to bring my lyrics to life with music and passion behind them.
