Julian was born in Leicester (UK) and studied music at the University of Leeds, graduating in 1995. A solid background in pop songwriting and production led him to work primarily as a composer and producer, with stints as an educator and performer around the UK and Europe, before relocating to New York to study the crafty art of musical theatre writing.
His work has been used in a variety of genres, spanning film, chart/dance, and children's music. Currently he is working on tracks for the forthcoming album from UK artist Natisse. He is also finishing up a hip hop score for short film 'Jasmine', which has already received accolades from 50 Cent and the head of Bad Boy Records. His interests include yoga, travel and jumping out of planes for no good reason.
