CMT Next Women of Country singer-songwriter Julie Williams brings country storytelling to the Old Theater stage, Sunday June 22 at 4:30p, presented by Pamlico Musical Society.

Julie honed her talent, singing in church, beach bars and even belting out national anthems at packed stadiums. Her sound speaks to everything she is: Black, white, Southern, a woman, hopeful, truthful. Julie says “My music is mixed like me, I want to tell the stories that need to be told.”

After graduating with a public policy degree from Duke University in 2019, she moved to Nashville and found her musical home in the Black country and Americana scene. She was named in Rissi Palmer’s Color Me Country Class of 2021 and featured in a PBS NewsHour special on Black women in country music. In 2022, Julie joined the Black Opry, a collective of Black artists in country, blues, folk, and Americana. Julie was inducted in the CMT Next Women of Country Class of 2023.

Tickets $25, available at Nautical Wheelers in Oriental & New Bern, and online at pamlicomusic.org.
