Julie Amadeo

ICON STATUS

A BIRTHDAY CABARET

What makes a song truly iconic?

Is it the towering vocal legend who first sang it, a masterfully written story, or just a nostalgia trip that instantly drops you back into a specific moment in time?

In ICON STATUS: A Birthday Cabaret, Julie Amadeo celebrates a milestone year by diving into a brilliant, genre-defying setlist of music that outlived its era and became a permanent part of our cultural soundtrack. This isn't just one style of music, but rather an unpredictable ride through the sounds that define us. Julie seamlessly weaves together everything from sweeping Broadway showstoppers and soulful vocal classics to timeless pop brilliance and pure, joyful millennial nostalgia.

Backed by a live band, it’s an evening of powerhouse vocals, genuine humor, and storytelling that explores how great songs find their way into our hearts and our collective pursuit of true icon status.

All ticket sales will benefit the Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, honoring Julie’s parents and their ongoing journeys.

Julie Amadeo has found her truth through music for as long as she can remember. Singing since she could speak, she began her journey in choirs and later stepped into the spotlight as a soloist, rediscovering and reclaiming her own voice. Past performance highlights include singing at Carnegie Hall with the NYC Bar Chorus and co-starring in a two-woman cabaret show at the Laurie Beechman with a friend last year.

By day, Julie is a corporate lawyer navigating complex systems, but the stage remains her ultimate space for self-expression. Building on the success of last year's collaborative performance, ICON STATUS: A Birthday Cabaret marks her official solo debut, offering an evening of music, storytelling, and celebration sung straight from the heart.
