Award winning pianist, composer, and recording artist Yulia is spreading love and compassion around the globe.
Yulia has been a Smooth Jazz Network chart-topping artist for several years now. She was nominated for our Breakout Artist of the Year in 2022 and released her first, full smooth jazz album, "Best Wishes" in 2023. Her latest single, "Let's Agree to Love" features Jackiem Joyner and has already broken into the Top 100.
Released during a time where listeners are starting to wonder who (or what) made the music they're listening to, Yulia has made her position clear, "As the composer, arranger, and producer of this song, I’d like to mention that no AI was used at any stage of the creative process behind this track. “Let’s Agree To Love” is a message from the heart, woven into every note of its melody and harmony."
As the composer and producer, Yulia brought together a host of talent to bring this track to life, all of whom she expresses deep gratitude towards:
Yulia - Piano, Keys, Synth
Jackiem Joyner - Feat. Artist on Saxophone
David Haynes - Drums, Percussion
Sekou Bunch - Low Bass, fretted
Tim Bailey Jr. - Fretless Bass
Jay Soto - Guitars
Tre Nagella - Mixing and mastering
She's posted on instagram about the meaning behind this song and her strong connection to music's meaning, even making T-shirts displaying the phrase to spread the message of love and kindness.
“Let’s Agree To Love” started as an instrumental piece, but over time it became more than music - it became a message I couldn’t keep only in sound. It’s about choosing kindness. Choosing softness. Choosing love - in a world that feels overwhelming. - Yulia
Yulia continues, "The title of this release came to me during a time when divisions between people felt especially visible. In that moment, I felt a deep need to reflect on what truly unites us beyond our differences.. This music is a response to that — a reflection of love as a divine gift from God, the source of all true love, healing, and reconciliation. "
Yulia's other recent chart-topping single Isaiah 40:31 was also born of Yulia's faith.
On Instagram she thanked all those who helped make this song a reality, including producer and composer Lew Laing before sharing the verse, "But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31."
"My hope is that this work gently points listeners back to compassion, grace, and the presence of God’s love in their own lives, inspiring deeper connection with Him and with one another," Yulia writes.
This tune won the InterContinental Music Award in Contemporary Instrumental in 2025, which wasn't her first honor (and certainly not her last). She was also awarded Pianist of the Year in 2025 at the International Red Carpet Award Show and has earned top honors from the Global Music Awards, World Entertainment Awards, Hollywood Independent Music Awards, World Songwriting Awards, European International Music Awards, and other prestigious competitions.
"Heaven," featuring Mariea Antoinette on harp, took her to the Hollywood Independent Music Awards last summer, winning the New Age/Ambient category.
Looking ahead, collaborations with fellow musicians, live performances, and the creation of new musical masterpieces remain steadfast pursuits.
