Bio

Julie Dee Holder – Area Sales Manager, Enslaved to the brick industry for 31 years, just the like the Israelites to the Egyptians LOL First 26 years in sales and now 5 years in management. Born into a Christian family who made sure I knew God. Married and divorced twice with one beautiful and amazing stepdaughter that I call my own.  I have always loved to sing and dance from childhood. Started writing poetry young and then started dabbling in songwriting when I was in my early twenties  I have never been trained in music, lyric writing or singing.  It is just a gift from the Lord. My testimony story is what lead me into recording this current CD called Eyes On You, which focuses on my story of what the Lord has done for me in song.  God and I have written every song together. I also just finished writing a short story testimony book of how the Cd and book came into play as God used me to step into my calling!  Have recorded one podcast with I Need BLUE
