Julia Boutros is a revered Lebanese singer who has been a prominent figure in the Arabic music scene since the mid-1980s. Born on April 1, 1968, in Beirut, Boutros was only 12 when she first graced the airwaves with her gift. Coming from a family that cherished the arts – her brother Ziad is a well-known composer and playwright – Julia's passion for music blossomed early. She rose to fame with the release of her song "Ghabet Shams El Haq" and solidified her presence in the industry with subsequent hits that spoke to the hearts of her listeners.

Offering a compelling and unique blend of poignant lyrics and emotive melodies, Julia Boutros's music frequently channels themes of love, peace, and social justice. Her 1985 breakthrough album, titled "Julia," showcased her deep, sultry voice, which has become a signature quality. Over the years, Julia has become known for her intellectual and revolutionary songs, such as the profoundly impactful single "Ahibaii" in 2006, which was based on a letter by Hezbollah's secretary-general Hassan Nasrallah, and the proceeds from the song were donated to support the people affected during the Israel-Lebanon conflict. Her discography includes several well-received releases, with her latest concerts and singles, such as "وين الملايين" (Live) and "Julia chante Elias Rahbani," reaffirming her enduring appeal. Boutros remains a powerful and inspiring figure in the world of Arabic music, using her talent to not only enthrall audiences but also to inspire change and to give voice to cultural and humanitarian issues.
