Celebrating Black History: The women who shaped dance music
From r'n'b to disco, funk and house
Julie McKnight
Having grown up with musical parents, Julie McKnight gravitated towards a career in music just before the new millennium. The New York garage favorite 'Finally' by Kings of Tomorrow, with its minimalist production, provided ample space for McKnight to fill with soulful vocals reminiscent of deep house tracks from a decade earlier. The track still evokes nostalgia, and was featured in Mia Hansen-Løve’s 2014 French Touch movie Eden.
