Julieann Ott

Philly-based singer-songwriter Julieann Ott writes rootsy pop “song-stories” that evoke introspective Americana superstars a la Patty Griffin, Aimee Mann and Sheryl Crow. With vivid imagery and unexpected melodic turns, Ott hooks her listeners and takes them on an emotional ride. Trained as a graphic artist, she dreamt of a life writing and performing music, but there were kids to raise, grandkids to embrace, and fears to overcome. Stronger than fear was the desire to create. The desire to empathize, share joy, make change for good, however small, and to continually ask “What’s it all about?” Ott is often accompanied by violinist and seasoned performer, Rob Lincoln. Her debut EP, Freight Train Lullaby, was released in March 2023, and continues to be played on folk radio stations across the country.
