About the artist
“Julia Vos is an Alberta artist who has been on the rise to making a name for herself in Canadian country music. A multi talent instrumentalist, truthful song writer, and a firecracker of a performer. ”
Steeped in the tradition of family band Bluegrass and swayed by modern country’s catchy hooks, Julia Vos is one of Alberta’s most compelling emergent voices. Hot on the heels of her most recent and energetic single ‘You Can Find Me’, she finds her sun rising quickly over the prairie skies.
Taking the scene by storm in 2016 with a victory as the ‘Nashville North Star’ winner at the Calgary Stampede, Vos quickly perked the ears of local radio with her debut single ‘Whispers’ (2017), an impressive independent launch that showcased her honeyed vocals and left a lasting impression on listeners.
Akin to early Faith Hill and Lee Ann Womack, Vos displays an undeniable poignant quality in her approach and exceptional vocal tone. With her second single ‘Stay’ (2019), both songwriting and production quality exhibited substantial growth, as did her live performance opportunities - now having shared the stage with greats among Gord Bamford, Paul Brandt, Tebey and Dan Davidson. She has graced stages at awards and festivals alike, including the CCMA’s, Boots & Hearts, Big Valley Jamboree and The Calgary Stampede.
With a handful of catchy, hook-filled numbers, Vos waded into deeper waters with the stunning ‘Jude’ (2023), a gentle offering for parents who’ve lost children or had trouble conceiving. To deliver heavy messages with such delicacy is no easy feat, Vos did a remarkable job and further cemented her strength as a songwriter. The song also earned her a Community Spirit award at this year’s Country Music Alberta Award, alongside two other nominations for Songwriter and Artist of the Year.
Newly signed to the Fame Group Agency and with a handful of summer shows around the corner, Vos will remain busy with new singles and performances slated for 2024. Keeping it close to the vest for now, “You Can Find Me” remains her most current release - available online and at radio now.
"Julia Vos played the mandolin like nobody’s business, and covered some very lofty songs: Sin Wagon by the “Dixie Chick” and “Better Dig Two” by The Band Perry."
-Front Porch Music
“Nearly all the mainstage artists at the Big Valley jamboree sang their first notes in church. In their teens or younger, the talented ones moved from the pews to the altar to Nashville – a trajectory Julia is already on."
-Todd Babiak Edmonton Journal
