Radio de Julie Doiron

Julie Doiron is a Canadian singer-songwriter of Acadian heritage. Doiron started playing guitar (later switching to bass) in Eric's Trip at age eighteen, having joined the band under the insistence of her then-boyfriend, Rick White, also of Eric's Trip. Shortly before the band's break-up in 1996, she released a solo album under the name Broken Girl, which followed two previous 7" EPs under that name. All of her subsequent material, however, has been released under her own name. In 1999, Doiron recorded an album with the Ottawa band Wooden Stars, which was the first time she had worked with a band since the end of Eric's Trip. She was honoured with a Juno Award for Julie Doiron and the Wooden Stars in March 2000. She has appeared as a guest musician on albums by The Tragically Hip, Gordon Downie and Herman Düne, and has also released a split record co-credited to the alternative country band Okkervil River. She played with indie rock band Shotgun & Jaybird until their demise in 2007, but she and Dick Morello have continued as Calm Down It's Monday.
