Singer-songwriter Julie Haven has been safeguarding a special collection of original songs for many years. These moody, piano-based songs were forged from love, heartbreak, self-discovery, and resilience. They have been performed around the country, and recorded in many studios, yet their elusive essences have never been properly captured until now. 

Today, the Metro Detroit-based artist is sharing newly-recorded versions of this very personal catalog of stirring and elegantly enlightening alt-pop as the album, Dramatic Departures, expected for release in spring of 2024. And the timing couldn’t be more perfect: a recent breakup has imbued these songs with even more vitality. 

“It feels like these songs have been part of my life forever. They are based on true experiences, and they’ve helped me get through many hard times,” Julie says. “It seems like synchronicity that I am experiencing the same kind of heartbreak today as I went through when I wrote them, and here they are to help me get through.”

Julie is an emotionally raw but musically sophisticated singer-songwriter with a penchant for cinematic arrangements, lush orchestrations, soulful and dynamic vocals, and a flair for lyrics that are both vulnerable and visceral. Julie has garnered favorable comparisons to Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, Alanis Morrissette, PJ Harvey, Sarah McLachlan, and Chantal Kreviazuk. She has performed throughout the U.S. in a variety of contexts—from coffee houses to festivals, including many consecutive performances at Michigan’s beloved Arts, Beats and Eats Festival. Previously, Julie released an album, four EPs, and a live record. Dramatic Departures, however, will be her first full-length album available for worldwide release.

Julie Haven Drops Emotional New Single “Between the Lies”

“Between the Lies” is a song that delves deep into the underpinnings of domestic abuse and gaslighting. It is raw, emotional, and the lyrics paint a very powerful picture of a tumultuous relationship, and the questioning of how and when to walk away.

“Kill Me”

The haunting “Kill Me” is built around an ominous piano motif, and lavished with sensually expressive vocal harmonies, eerie strings, and melancholy electro-pop ambience. This is a song about the kind of love betrayal that leaves you gutted and powerless.
