After hearing about this Mini-Girl with the Maxi-Voice, Merv invited her to appear on over 100 of his shows. When Julie received a standing ovation from both the audience and the entire TV studio staff, Merv immediately took Julie under his wing.

As Julie recalls, “What a way to grow up and start in this business!!! These people were wonderful to me. Some kids went to school; I went to work and learned from the best. Each one of these performers was a great professor to me. I was lucky to have had the opportunity to know them all. I owe so much to them” ...

Michael buble:
Includes audio and video samples, a brief profile, news, photographs, and fan club information.
His name is Michael Buble(pronounced Boo-blay) and the evidence of his singular swingness is on abundant display with his irresistible new Reprise/143 Records debut album. More than a tribute to the gold standard of music's most enduring songs; more than a homage to a bygone era of songwriting and performing: the thirteen tracks of Michael Bublé announce in no uncertain terms the arrival of a major new talent with a flair for infusing the familiar and beloved music with a fresh, original and utterly unique sensibility entirely his own.
Michael Buble can, indeed, swing.
It's a precocious fondness evident virtually from the cradle, when Michael first began absorbing the sounds of Ella Fitzgerald, Keely Smith, Sarah Vaughan and Rosemary Clooney, with a liberal sprinkling of Stevie Wonder, Elvis, Bobby Darin, Vaughan Monroe and Ol' Blue Eyes. "My grandfather was really my best friend growing up," reveals Michael. "He was the one who opened me up to a whole world of music that seemed to have been passed over by my generation. Although I like rock & roll and modern music, the first time my granddad played me the Mills Brothers something magical happened. The lyrics were so romantic, so real'the way a song should be for me. It was like seeing my future flash before me. I wanted to be a singer and I knew that this was the music that I wanted to sing."
It was, in fact, his grandfather who proved instrumental in moving Michael toward a career in music. "He asked me, as a favor to him, to learn the songs that he loved so much," Michael continues. "It was kind of a guilt trip, but he didn't have to do much convincing. I started practicing and entered a local talent contest. I won the competition, but was later disqualified for being underage. That was when my granddad, who was a skilled plumber, started offering to do free work for musicians in town in exchange for letting me perform a few numbers with them on stage." A star was born, even as leaky faucets all over Vancouver were being repaired. (bio from swing365.com).
