Singer/songwriter Julia Poorman released her latest single “Upsteam” to all major platforms. The single was co-written and produced by Julia Poorman and Danny Roselle at Lakehouse Recording Studio in Asbury Park, NJ and Rosedome Studio in Summit, NJ.
“Upstream is all about carving your own path in a world that begs you to conform. It highlights the magic we each possess as unique and powerful human beings that know how to speak our truths no matter the consequences,” says Julia.
Writing songs has always been second nature to Julia. As a young girl living in New York’s Finger Lakes Region, her little poems could be found stuffed in her night stand expectantly waiting for melodies to bring them to life. As soon as she’d pick up the paper, the music would come flowing out and a song would be born.
Throughout her youth, music served as a reliable and cathartic outlet for Julia. To her, it’s an entire dimension filled with comradery, boundless expression, and healing.
As a young adult, Julia took a brief step back from her musical endeavors to help build a business and life with her fiance. Navigating the world as an entrepreneur brought many rewarding opportunities for growth and unforgettable experiences, but she was left feeling a void in her creative nature.
In 2021, Julia unexpectedly lost her father. One of the last text messages he sent her was a photo of him listening to her original self-titled EP from 2012. She knew she needed to get back to her roots to begin to heal. Music became a necessary therapy again, and the melodies and lyrics just didn’t stop.
Julia now feels the importance of creating music that puts people in their own flow state, a vibrational catalyst for self-exploration and healing. Her passion reclaimed, she feels as though this is just the beginning.
Julia released her single “Already Got It” in 2022.
