My Story

Pop/R&B singer-songwriter Julia Tynes is best known for her soulful and sweet vocals, girl-power sass, and story-driven lyrics that make her music instantly relatable to audiences.

Julia was born and raised in Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia, and started her amazing career based in Toronto. Growing up in a multi-racial Nova Scotia family, she is always an East Coast girl at heart and her music started from there. Everything she experienced and appreciated there, such as the beautiful ocean view from her grandmother’s house and the moments of laughing so hard she cried (lyrics from her single “After You”), are the fountainhead of her music. They seem small but have tremendous beauty.

As she develops as an artist, her music was influenced by Motown, 90’s Pop, and Bruno Mars. And with her multiple talents as a vocalist, songwriter, and choreographer, Julia has been following her dream with strong passion and never knows to stop as long as there is a small beauty in her life.

“Lady J’s [Julia Tynes] voice has a unique gift that her
audiences and listeners love. This is the sign of a true artist that sets her apart from all others”

"I was impressed with how Julia brought in the
message of “love yourself” and the positive messages she conveyed throughout her show."
