In this episode, Adam sits down with singer, songwriter and pianist, Julian Velard, best known for his unique blend of music and comedy. Based in LA, Julian has a decade-long presence in the US music and comedy scenes and has also become a cult sensation in the UK and Europe. He has received notable accolades from The Guardian, Time Out London, and The Sunday Times which propelled him to a major label record deal.
Julian has toured internationally with Jamie Cullum, Paul Carrack, and Goldfrapp, and shared stages with comedians like Will Ferrell, Reggie Watts, and Paul Scheer. He served as the artist-in-residence at Joe’s Pub at the Public New Theatre in NYC, and his live show was recognized as one of the best by Broadway World.
In this episode, you will learn:
- The lessons Julian has learnt from performing in piano bars across the US and the world!
- Why understanding Music Theory helped unlock Julian’s songwriting
- Why Julian’s go-to process for learning a song is by reading the ‘songbooks’
- Why all the musical elements of a song, should be there to serve the lyric… and lots, lots more!
