Singer-songwriter Julia Finnegan is, at her core, a compelling storyteller. She finds catharsis in the profound interplay of words, forging intimate connections with her audience. Based in Kingston, she has cultivated her musical journey from an early age, captivating audiences throughout Ontario for over a decade. 

​

In 2015, Julia released her debut EP, "Thoughts Collide," resonating from coast to coast with widespread radio play on CBC Radio. Having shared the stage with admired artists like Justin Rutledge, Rose Cousins, The Weather Station, Ombiigizi, Gord Sinclair (The Tragically Hip) and more, Julia released her debut record, "Listen to the Wallflowers," in December 2020. “Listen to the Wallflowers” was recorded at Port William Sound (Andy Shauf, Helena Deland, Tokyo Police Club), produced and engineered by Jonas Bonnetta (Evening Hymns), mixed by James Bunton (Donovan Woods, Wild Rivers) and mastered by João Carvalho (Lights, Arkells, Rose Cousins).

​

Beyond the stage, Julia Finnegan is also an accomplished painter. Just as in her music, she paints vivid imagery for her listeners, finding inspiration in everything from old wives’ tales to magnolia trees. Through acoustic ballads and powerful vocals, her songs explore themes of unrequited love and empowerment.
