JULIA AUTUMN FORD is an international touring artist that has been playing professionally since she was a teenager. After spending her senior year of high school recording her debut self-titled EP, she graduated and immediately went on her first tour. She has toured extensively throughout the USA playing festivals, TV & radio. As a member of Belle of the Fall, an indie folk duo comprised of JAF and Tracy Walton, she released 3 critically acclaimed albums; Earthbound, Rise Up, and The Bending of Light.

JAF has a knack for writing songs that explore the depths of human existence. She can make the heaviest of subjects seem light as a feather. She is most known for her unique and ethereal voice which has been described as "buttered chocolate" and "as if fairies and cotton candy were playing together in a fishbowl".

She currently resides in the northwest corner of CT where she has a private music teaching studio and works at On Deck Sound Studio in Northfield, CT as a videographer and assistant engineer.

Julia will be accompanied by guitarist Jeff Howard.


JEFF HOWARD is a Great Barrington, MA based music educator and professional guitarist. From an early age Jeff immersed himself in live music and professional recording circles. At 14, Jeff joined the successful jam-band The McLovins. The group’s viral fame led Jeff to share the stage with legends such as Buddy Guy and Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips. Currently, Jeff enjoys working as a music department head at Miss Halls School in Pittsfield, MA.
