Early life

Julius was born in Canterbury, Kent on 30 January 1993 to Chris Cowdrey and Christel (née Holst-Sande); he is of Swedish descent on his mother's side. Cowdrey comes from a cricketing dynasty with his father Chris and grandfather, life peer, Colin Cowdrey, both captaining England.[3] His twin brother, Fabian Cowdrey, followed the family tradition and played for Kent County Cricket Club for five years.[4] Julius discovered his talent and passion for music at a very young age whilst singing in the Tonbridge School choir and began songwriting at the age of 16; following in the footsteps of his mother, herself a jazz singer.[5][6]

Career

In 2013, Julius introduced live music to London's West End nightclub Mahiki, and became a regular headliner at music venues in London, including The Troubadour.[7] Following his success in London, Cowdrey began to split his time between London and New York, where he spent a lot of time working on his music, and was eventually asked to headline rooftop parties in Los Angeles.[8]

After a few years honing his craft, Cowdrey's debut single 7 Roads (I See You) was released in November 2016, where it reached to Number 1 on the UK official iTunes singer-songwriter charts and Number 2 on the Spotify UK Viral Charts.

gollark: Okay, that is... probably a better idea, yes.
gollark: Anyway, <@178948413851697152>, please do rewrite that query if you have *better* ideas.
gollark: Oh, probably, but this I can actually understand.
gollark: I have ended up writing this slightly ridiculous query: `SELECT * FROM pages WHERE updated = (SELECT MAX (updated) FROM pages WHERE name = ${req.params.name}) AND name = ${req.params.name}`(no SQL injection there, I use `sql-template-strings`)
