Julian Velard is a classic entertainer - a rare combination of Nilsson-meets-Newman,
piano-driven singer-songwriter sensibility and razor-sharp comedic timing. His versatile
stage presence makes him equally comfortable in the spotlight or as a sidekick - a modern-day Paul Shaffer. He’s become a cult sensation in America and Europe, and an
in-demand performer in his homebase of Los Angeles.
Velard’s quick wit and musicality have made him a fixture in the comedy world. He’s been a regular guest on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show and NPR’s Ask Me Another, and
shared stages with a host of talented comedians including Will Ferrell, Reggie Watts, Drew Carey, and Jack Black, and Paul Scheer.
A native New Yorker, Velard scored a major label record deal in the ‘00s that took him to the U.K., where he toured alongside Jamie Cullum, Paul Carrack, and Goldfrapp, and garnered praise from The Guardian, Time Out London, and The Sunday Times. He served as an artist-in-residence at the prestigious Joe’s Pub at The Public Theater in New York City.
In addition to a body of work that includes seven studio albums, Velard has also written
music and lyrics for U.K. sensation Olly Murs, Wix.com, the New York Knicks, Buzzfeed,
Audible, Google, Aldi Supermarkets., and The New Republic. For these unique projects,
he’s been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Vice, The AV Club,
Nerdist, and Mashable.
