5/09/09 happy mother's day weekend (to me too!)
I love the first hour of the morning. All is quiet here on the West Side ... except for the sound of my iPod in my ears. I'm listening to the new tracks we worked on this week; Rock Your World and Touch Me, both inspired on trips home from my beloved Utah ... and Capo'd in 11, a little ditty brought on during my "broken wing" era. The boys have done a fantabulous job on the recordings. I can't thank them enough and I can't wait for you to hear them. We're shooting for a summer CD release party, details coming ... Enjoy the full moon tonight! Mizz you and C U SOON. ~ J
p.s. thanks to my lil' Elfin forest out there in Utah for all the goddess meanderings this week ... I love this image I found of Selene ..., Goddess of the Full Moon :-)

by the way ... some of you were asking for the words to capo'd in 11 ... here you go ...
capo'd in 11
running through time
I always thought
I ran a solid line
but then I met my fate
what's a girl to do
the last thing I thought I'd meet
was you
you don't need to say
words get in the way
I'm not trying to complicate
your life
don't you hesitate
don't you look away
I'm captured by the
presence in your eyes
capo'd in 11
frozen in time
I'm here waiting
on your sign
can you see me here
struggling to be
a dose of independence
refilled with need
you don't need to say
words get in the way
I'm not trying to complicate
your life
don't you hesitate
don't you look away
I'm captured by the
presence in your eyes
capo'd in 11
I'm here waiting on your
I'm here waiting on your
I'm here waiting on your sign
7/29/08 Julie will be played on the KPRI 102.1 Homegrown Hour. Tune in this Saturday at 9 PM and check out Astra's show!

Thank you so much for all the gimp well wishes!!! The shoulder is healing, albeit a tad slower than I'd like, but the boys and I have been able to get out for a wee show here or there. I've also been busy laying down the vocal tracks for the new disc and have managed to work out a couple of new favorite tunes, "capo'd in eleven" and "rock your world". Both will appear on the upcoming cd. We've also scheduled some new show dates and are working on adding some more. I sure hope to see ya'll real soon.
happy independence day - xo - jules

4/3/08 Postponement of Shows Due to the Gimp Factor
Hey Kidz -
I’ve had to postpone a couple of shows due to a wee riding injury in beautiful Park City, Utah but I’m really looking forward to a rockin’ second half of the year though as we kick off the summer show schedule in my beloved Tucson, and I am working on filling up the calendar for those hot summer months.
Plans to release my second full length Love Etiquette are still in the works and we’re looking to drop the disc sometime before Christmas, with any Grace of God.
A big thank you to my buddies in Park City for being there post-accident, Tim Wray, Doctor Dave and Chicago Bill. Big hugs to all my friends and family for their love, support and help .... Uncle Paul, Matt, Nanny K ... the first couple of weeks would have been truly rough without ya’ll. Thank you ALL for the Get Well messages!
Until we see each other again, take care, God Bless ...
Lots of Love Always,
Julie
p.s. - Latest and Greatest Movie "Once" ... check it out. It makes me long for Ireland!

"Hello ... it's me. You there?
OMG!!! Where have I been? Can you ever forgive me for the fog I’ve been in? Maybe it was Tucson, or New York … more than likely beautiful Ireland. So it’s true … we’re back … home for the holidays! But can you ever really go home? Madly preparing the 2007 tour schedule so we can get out and see you pretty kids. Looking forward to the Steve Poltz show we’re opening at LeStats on Dec 22. Please do come out and share in the Holiday spirit. Hope to see you.

"barely breaking"
Oh my gosh ya’ll I am so sorry for the lag factor on the latest and greatest Julie Mack updates. We’ve been so busy and in the last month have had the pleasure of going to Tucson and back (twice), playing in front of Shamu and performing in the Big Apple last weekend. It has been an absolutely amazing month of great music, great cities and great friends. Thank you, thank you for all the road support we’ve been receiving. T and I can’t thank you enough for coughing up your pads to a couple of weary musicians. It’s been marvelous spending time with all of our close friends on the road as well as meeting so many wonderful new souls. There have been some absolutely fabulous conversations, meals and cocktails shared!
Tony, Merch Girl Heather and I are now getting ready for the trip to Dublin and Belfast next week. We’ll be traveling and performing with our good friend and amazing talent Ludwig. If you’re in Dublin next week you can tune in and catch us Live on Thursday afternoon on Dublin FM South. Please also check out the calendar for show dates and information.
We look forward to seeing you cats in Ireland.
Cheers!

Lyrics to a new song we're introducing in Santa Barbara ... "Girl For You" ...
played the games
made the moves
in spite of everything I do
I’m not the girl for you
you and I ain’t going nowhere
I’m getting tired of the words I’m hearing
little voice inside my head
is driven crazy with over thinking
going insane
babe you’ve changed me
for good…
played the games
made the moves
in spite of everything I do
I’m not the girl for you
going around in circles
getting dizzy with all the spinning
makes me sad to think about
the days that I’ve been wasting
all this time
putting things aside
for you…
played the games
made the moves
in spite of everything I do
I’m not the girl for you
5/1/06
Girl for you...

Aaahhh memories of Toronto. I was sparked by an email today. I love this picture of us but where is Frank? ;-)
Kids there's been so much going on ... so much so that I've neglected to write. Can you ever forgive me? I'll make it up to you I swear as we have so much going on, East Coast and Ireland show dates in the work and a new album right around the bend. Please help us launch it at NBC SD's Concert on the Square happening on June 2. Tune in at 9:30 or come on down to Horton Plaza square at noon for the live concert... and will somebody bring me a sandwich? No tomatoes please. hee hee

STAR
There you are, sitting in my car
There you are, my little angel my little star
You can be my ride, going to take the road
less traveled on
You can take me higher than a kite
above the heavens
You just love going through my stuff
I guess all those toys, well they didn't amount to much
You can be my ride, going to take the road
less traveled on
You can take me higher than a kite
above the heavens
Didn't know I could love you
Didn't know I could care
Couldn't believe that you're love
could take me somewhere cool...
You can be my ride, going to take the road
less traveled on
You can take me higher than a kite
above the heavens
My little angel, my little star
1/3/06 happy new years!
i've walked the streets of new orleans
dusty roads of abilene
seen things you can't imagine
kissed a many dirty face
been to far off distant places
to find my way home again
it's new years day i forgot
gotta take the time
to make those calls
be thankful for the life i've lived
good times and bad
happy days and sad
the rain outside will wash me clean
take away the dirt and sins
give me a new beginning
it's a new year, a brand new day
swear this time i'll change my ways
and hit the ground next time running
it's new years day i forgot
gotta take the time
to make those calls
be thankful for the life i've lived
good times and bad
happy days and sad

You're not the only one...
It's amazing... the calls I get at 4AM. I'm considering renaming "3AM", ...move it up an hour. Some of the calls, voices are sweet ... relieving, others ... well ... a poor decision. Is that what love was for? Nonetheless they're all friends and I love you all and hope to see you soon ... at a show? We've two left this year and then this gal and SH are buckling down to record. We've a full length my friends, "coming around" the corner.
So for God sake, get some sleep and please don't be a lost cause.

The Greek philosopher Aristotle said that friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies.
I just wanted to take a quick moment to thank everyone for coming out to the Casbah last Saturday and a special big hug and thanks "my boys" in the band and to Mr. Steverino Poltz for letting us hoodlums open up. It was great to meet all the new faces and awesome to see the familiar. I felt like a little fish in the presence of Doug Pettibone, Berkley Hart and Tom Freund having grown to love and respect all that talent in the room. It was a shining moment in what was otherwise a pretty hellacious couple of weeks. Ive really come to know who my friends are and I love you all dearly. Have a great holiday season, stay healthy and Ill see you out at a show soon. xxx Jules

11/05/05 a new tune... (and you thought I was rambling)... ;-)
I'm working on a slow brew
I'm thinking about a me and you
taking the time
to read between the lines
Nothing but a slow brew
thinkin' about a me and you
taking a guess
on all these baby steps
and it don't feel the same this time
I don't care if you don't mind
let things be the way they'll be
tea for you coffee for me
Looking for a slow brew
who would have knew
so happy that I
didn't believe all the lies
Hoping for a slow brew
not a fast moving fool
what will it be
the fool or a brew this time
and it don't feel the same this time
I don't care if you don't mind
let things be the way they'll be
tea for you coffee for me.

Thank you so much my friends for having dinner with us last night. It means a lot to me. Thank you for the beautiful flowers and the handwritten notes. It was fun to Calypso with you...
We'll do it again soon.
We're looking forward to hitting the road, making some new friends in Berkeley and are stoked to be appearing at the Starry Plough Pub. Thank you Misty and Luca for the opportunity.
See you in October!

8/29/05 There's a whole lotta 40's going down tonight...
Wow... what a great couple of days in Arizona. Tony and I are quite pleased to say the least as the crowds were about as hot as the temperature. 107 anyone? Thank you so much to Bonnie at Javalinas and our newfound friends in Southeast Tucson. We couldn't have asked for a better show and response. High five to Sandra, Matt and the team at Borders Books for the Phoenix gig. It sure was nice of everyone to come out and support us. Who would have thought... and to the 101 loop for being our friend. How we stumbled on Amsterdam in Phoenix, I'll never know. No wonder the guys were so good looking!
So we're back home and working hard for the Calypso Cafe dinner show right around the corner. Join us for a Jameson or two and PLEASE make reservations for a table or bar seat by the band if you are planning on attending.
Finally a Happy Birthday to all my Virgo babies... there are so many of you, and I'm very happy to have ALL of you in my life.

8/21/05 Because one stupid move deserves another...
Okay, so there are some songs I can't stop playing. You should MySpace them and listen. ;-)
I have to go to bed now, it's very late or very early...

Because every now and then a long shot comes in...
Happy Birthday Uncle Paul! Thanks so much to P & B for letting me and Loki set-up and play Saturday. It was a nice night for a House Concert. Couldn't help but feel like it was a scene out of Notting Hill with all the lights in the houses lit up and happy hand-holding couples coming down the hill. YUCK!
Just kidding. I'm not that jaded or cynical although I suspect there might a lad or two that beg to differ. C'mon now... I'm just being my little smartass self... and isn't that what you like about me anyways?
Anyone want to come to Arizona and hang out with me, Tony and S_ _ thead? As if things aren't hot enough here...
Toxically yours... j mack
8/5/05 It's amazing what you notice when you're forced to slow down.
Hey kiddo's... my apologies for any breakdown in communication. Things got turned a little upside down this week as a result of an unexpected visit to the hospital to say good-bye to mr.appendix. thank God for the amazing work man has done with painkillers and the team at Scripps in Encinitas. With an extra cherry on top for the OR doc that was kind enough to stop what he was doing to wipe a tear away during a scarey moment and nurse Ross for making sure my pendent remain close by. But it's Friday and like a bat out of hell, life is back to normal, somewhat.
Moving on, some inquiring minds have been wanting to know... what would it take to win the heart of this spirited child... and to that I say three things:
a. don't cheat.
b. there is no such thing as too much romance.
c. the way to my heart is through my son. get past him, and you're more then halfway there.
Hold out for true love. Anything less is a compromise.
God Bless,

Hey!
Thanks to everyone who came out to the show Sunday night and to Brandi Carlile and her band for letting us grace the stage. What a great crowd!
Some of you have been asking for the words to the new song I performed so here you go:
G-Unit Shoes
so I'm standing here
looking like a fool
have I lost my mind
couldn't find the clue
but I'll survive
last laughs on you
do you like my clothes
when you look at me
or do you want to take me shopping
and dress me in silly things
well I'll survive
last laughs on you
and I'll move on
how about you
do you like my touch
or the things I do
would you let me stay if I didn't wear
my g-unit shoes
well I'll survive
last laughs on you
and I'll move on
keep wearing my shoes
just to bug the shit out of you
~
I know you thought it would never happen but yes my it's true. Welcome to my new home, forgive the skeletons and bones.
We're still cleaning up the dust here at juliemack.com but come on in and look around. Careful tredding though, you might just get sucked in. Hopefully you'll find it a lot easier to maneuver. Feel free to drop us a line and let us know what you think.
As always there's a ton of stuff going on. We're looking forward to our night with Kat Parsons at the Hotel Cafe on July 13th and I've just added a San Diego date at the Casbah opening up for Brandi Carlile one of Rolling Stone’s “10 Artists To Watch” for 2005. The show will be an acoustic gig so plan on coming out early for a night of good music, goods peeps and goodness all around.
