JULIET WYERS grew up in the Pacific Northwest with activist parents who heated with wood, baked bread weekly and kept a big garden. She was a highly-practiced walkman singer before she risked solo performance. Subtly literate, her songs ring with melodies that reflect the words’ meanings and hop with rhythmic life. Raised on soul music/funk, 1960’s folk, and Broadway musicals, Wyers winds science and spirit together in pieces about honeybees, subliming, and a metal detector man. Wyers plays her tone-deaf dad’s gorgeous 1956 Gibson guitar.

She released her first CD, “Clear,” in 2003 earning finalist awards, invitations to perform at 6 national songwriting competitions, including Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Kerrville Folk Festival, Rocky Mt. Folks Festival, and the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.
