What people are saying:

“...ingenious covers...and perspicacious originals...Hardy lives, like [Kurt] Elling and [Bobby]McFerrin, in a musical world of her own, and it is a marvelously dynamic place." Christopher Loudon, JazzTimes June

“Julie Hardy's newly issued debut CD, A Moment's Glance (Fresh Sound New Talent), introduces a singer well equipped to handle everything modern jazz vocalism demands: candlelit standards ("My Romance"), repurposed pop hits ("And I Love Him"), effortless improvisation and a strong writer's pen. Saxist Rob Stillman surrounds Hardy's dark-velvet voice with breathy intimacies; the rhythm section of Randy Ingram, Ben Street, and Adam Cruz keep things on a steady simmer." Steve Smith, Time Out New York, March 31-April 6

“...Hardy's voice is acrobatic and pliable but she doesn't rub her formidable skills in your face, delivering the words in a tone that is often soft and impressionistic as Luciana Souza. She's also a musician as much as a singer of lyrics as she dives into rhythms and harmonies...using a musical intellect that is bright and intuitive." Tad Hendrickson, Jazz Week, March 23, 2005
