Juliet Ewing describes herself as a former Broadway theater gal, unleashing her passion for jazz and cabaret in the NYC area. She is jazz and cabaret singer whose career has graced both Broadway stages and international tours of majpr Broadway musicals. Growing up in the Midwest, Juliet was exposed to many genres of music as her parents were very involved in the classical world. Her mother, classical singer was a big fan of Broadway, Cabaret stars and classic Bossa Nova. Juliet was deeply influenced by the vibrant sounds of Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66, the legendary cabaret singer Bobby Short, and the great Ella Fitzgerald, and the iconic Bette Midler. Growing up in a household filled with music of all types, was a joy and a blessing. Juliet pursued her musical passion and graduated from The University of Michigan School of Music,Theatre and Dance with a Bacheleor of Fine Arts in Musical Theater. Arriving in New York. Juliet immediately started working in the theater community touring with a Broadway show, appearing on Broadway and spending an extensive time touring Europe and the U.S. in leading roles Broadway musicals. With an extensive theatrical resume, Juliet worked extensively in the U.S. in regional theaters with leading roles  KISS ME KATE, FOOTLOOSE, 42ND STREET, CRAZY FOR YOU as well as concerts of the music of Johnny Mercer, Jerome Kern. She performed in the Irving Berlin theatrical concert “The Melody Lingers On” orignating the role of “Juliet” in that show published by “The Rodgers and Hammerstein” company.

Juliet developed a particular passion for the music of George and Ira Gershwin, performing a leading role in their hit musical “Crazy for You.”’ For nearly 400 International performances, Juliet was immersed in the glory of the Gershwin tunes and developed a passion for the Great American Songbook. Continuing her run of Gershwin tunes, Juliet also had the pleasure of performing in San Francisco at a gala celebrating Ira Gershwin and was able to delve into more obscure and interesting Gershwin tunes as well. This "Gershwin Mania” eventually led her to develop and perform her latest show “Rise Up Singing-The Music of George Gershwin” to sold out audiences in NYC.

In a glowing review of this show, Bart Greenberg of Cabaret Scenes magazine praised “the golden voice and fine dramatic skill of diva Juliet Ewing.” He highlighted her unique approach to Gershwin's “Embraceable You,” noting, “It was so simple, so genuine. She purred the lyric 'come to mama, come to mama, do' in a way that was tender and erotic.” Greenberg also lauded her celebratory take on “Oh, Lady, Be Good,” which she refashioned as a love song about her relationship with New York: “'Oh please have some pity, I’m all alone in this big city.'” The review continues... ”Juliet's fresh and surprising interpretation of “But Not for Me” was another highlight, where, as Greenberg observed, “She brought an honest and surprising interpretation to the verse...with a lovely bit of snarkiness before the pathos of the chorus.” Her rendition of “How Long Has This Been Going On?” was reimagined as “the revenge tale of a betrayed woman,” complete with a new patter section that recalled ”the work of Peggy Lee (with a bit of Ann-Margret tossed in).”

 Juliet's musical journey has led her to become a regular performer at prestigious venues such as: Jazz on Main in Mount Kisco, NY and Winnie's Jazz Bar in New York City, Prohibition NYC as well as numerous private events. Her performances are celebrated for their emotional depth and vocal mastery, earning her acclaim from audiences and critics alike.

With a career that effortlessly bridges the worlds of jazz and cabaret, Juliet Ewing continues to captivate and inspire audiences. For more information on her upcoming performances, visit www.julietewing.com.

Reviewer Bart Greenberg ", the golden voice and fine dramatic skill of diva Juliet Ewing"

"Take, for example, her approach to “Embraceable You”; it was so simple, so genuine. She purred the lyric “come to mama, come to mama, do” in a way that was tender and erotic. Her celebratory take on “Oh, Lady, Be Good” was refashioned as a love song about her relationship with New York: “Oh please have some pity, I’m all alone in this big city.” She brought an honest and surprising interpretation to the verse of “But Not for Me” (she clearly loved lyrics) with a lovely bit of snarkiness before the pathos of the chorus
