Jullanar Gamboa was born and raised in sunny San Diego CA where she grew up with an affinity for music. When she was five, she often took over her parents CD's and sang to the sounds of George Michael, Kate Bush, and the soundtrack to the musical Chicago.

 

When she got into high school, she discovered jazz and fell in love. Listening to everything from Sarah Vaughn to Mel Torme to Coltrane,  she soon became the singer for her schools jazz band and small jazz combo.

She even went on to participate in the Young Arts program where she spent a week being mentored by some of the most well known artists in the world. 

​

When her high school journey came to an end, she was accepted into Berklee College of Music in Boston where she was able to learn and grow as a musician in ways that she couldn't have imagined.
