Artists like Nick Cave (age 66) and Nile Rodgers (age 71) are living proof that you can indeed have a โthird actโ in showbiz and in life itself. Thatโs the subject of a great new song called โLife 3.0โ by NYC area artist Julie Biens.
Biens writes insightful songs that make โadultingโ cool again. Her previous single โDevil In The Detailsโ is a wistful ballad reminiscent of Mary Chapin Carpenter, who snagged some Grammy awards in the โ90s and will hopefully have a third act soon.
โI wrote โLIFE 3.0โ to rebrand the midlife crisis as a โfork in the roadโ and an opportunity to grow,โ says Biens. โWhen I turned 50, I was going through my own feelings of restlessness and started wondering how to re-energize myself and not just settle into what I know. In my search, I found my way back to singing and then I started to try some songwriting. Once I started writing, I felt alive again. I just fell madly in love with it. The song is about my journey, but itโs also about my friends and neighbors.โ
