Julie Campiche is a multi-award-winning Swiss jazz harp pioneer. A vocalist, composer, sound designer and musical director, her work is an on-going process of musical innovation in jazz, classical, electronic and avant-garde exploration. Duos, trios, quartets or quintets, Julie Campiche is in constant movement. She is both a visionary and virtuoso, but above all she is profound, poetic and sensitive.
Following the release of two highly acclaimed albums with her long-standing quartet, Onkalo (2020) and You Matter (2022), she releases UNSPOKEN, her debut solo album on Nik Bärtsch’s Ronin Rhythm Records on 13 February 2026.
UNSPOKEN is a celebration of women and the force of feminine power. Campiche paints musical portraits of women—past and present, famous and anonymous—whose work confronts universal social issues. From filmmaker Andréa Bescond to poet and sex worker Grisélidis Réal, from activist Tarana Burke to author Virginia Woolf, she honours women whose voices have been silenced, minimised, or anonymised and the causes they have championed.
Campiche transforms these women’s stories into music that is playful, bold and brilliant. Her solo performances layer harp, voice and electronics creating rich, multi-dimensional soundscapes that shift from atmospheric to abrasive, lyrical to delicate always with powerful impact.
UNSPOKEN reveals Julie Campiche as an authentic, singular talent, delivering an intimate, and politically engaged—a socio-historical jolt that reminds us of women’s place in our world and of the inner landscape that drives Campiche’s art.
