Don Ross and Julie Malia, both well-established solo performers, decided to form a
new musical partnership. While continuing to play solo internationally, Don and Julie
have been performing many of their shows as a double bill since the fall of 2023. In
2024, they gave 45 concert performances in Germany, the UK, Canada and the USA.
They have continued the habit in 2025, having toured together on both sides of the
Atlantic.

Don Ross was born and raised in Montreal and has lived in various parts of Canada
over the course of his life. The son of a Mi’kmaw Indigenous mother and a Scottish
immigrant father, he graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Music) degree from
Toronto’s York University and started working full-time as a musician in 1988.

Julie Malia (AKA Jule Malischke) is a highly talented guitarist, singer and songwriter
who has made a name for herself in recent years with great compositions and
impressive festival appearances. Originally from Swabia in southern Germany, she also
works as a lecturer at the Carl Maria von Weber Music University in Dresden, Germany.

Julie is one of the most sought-after soloists on the European acoustic scene. Her
repertoire covers an impressively broad musical spectrum – from self-penned heartfelt
songs, very original song-cover arrangements, and diverse virtuoso styles on the
classical guitar through to modern fingerstyle arrangements. There are few musicians
who can boast such mastery of all these related but very different genres. Thursday

296 Broadview is not yet a fully wheelchair accessible venue, with stairs between all levels. Our goal is to fix that, and we need your support to do so - please consider making a donation towards our goals to make HRL the best listening room in Toronto!
