Sean Wood on “The Vortex “C89 Spring Forward

A California native raised in Seattle from the age of 13, Julie Herrera considers the NorthWest home and Seattle takes pride in claiming her as their own. Music has always been a source of inspiration for Julie. Her older sibling’s collection of 70’s and 80’s soul, disco and R&B records, coupled with her own tastes for new wave and dance artists of the 80’s, set the foundation for her future in music.

In the early 90’s Julie was instinctively drawn to Seattle’s underground dance music culture. With her passion for the art of DJing, a ferocious appetite for varied styles of music and unbridled soulful style, once Julie took to the decks in 1996 she quickly made waves. Her residencies with the Hitgirl Collective and HotBox shows had an important and long-lasting impact for her as an artist and the Seattle nightlife community, elevating herself and a host of other emerging female talent at the time.

With a career now past the 28 year mark, Julie is active as ever, holding down residencies with revered and respected crews such as Flammable, Noise Complaint, one half of the beloved WonderTwinz and her Burning Man camp, The Dusty Booty Ranch. 

Julie’s ability to take you on a journey from classic to modern house and techno stylings, tech-house, disco, Latin  and afrobeat is unmatched! A true artist with a captivating presence both as a DJ and performer, she is as much fun to hear as she is to watch. Beat by beat, Julie will leave you with an electrifying, soulful and uplifting dancefloor experience.
