Jules Paymer Podcast Interview with Bringin' It Backwards

We had the pleasure of interviewing Jules Paymer over Zoom video!

Jules Paymer recently released their single and music video for, "The Daughter That My Mother Wanted" featuring celebrated artist Miki Ratsula. The song and video touch upon the experience of being non-binary and queer and the difficulties that can arise with feeling like you don't belong or are letting your family down by being yourself. 

At the age of 7, Jules Paymer (they/them) found their love for music playing bass in a garage band in their hometown of Los Angeles, CA, alongside Lydia Night, the future star of “The Regrettes”. They soon learned guitar and piano, and by age 9, they were writing full songs. 
After finishing high school in LA, Jules moved to Nashville to hone their craft in a city they call ‘Songwriting Bootcamp’. They emerged with bold, lyric heavy songs with powerful themes and concepts exploring the world through new eyes.

Coming out in 2018 at the age of 18, first to their friends, Jules wrestled with the nature of explaining their ‘status’ to their family. “Relationships and sex are difficult enough to speak about with family, let alone your preferences on those matters. I kept thinking, ‘Do I really have to make an announcement?’”

Settling back in Los Angeles in the summer of 2022, Jules turned their attention to making friends, writing songs, and exploring their unique perspective through the prism of the modern music industry. Their original songs and song flips caught traction on social media, piquing the interest of artists including Fletcher, Noah Kahan, Joshua Bassett, and Royal and The Serpent. “Past Life,” a song about an ex who refused to acknowledge Jules’ pronouns after they came out as nonbinary, sparked contentious debate online, making Jules a target for both praise and hate speech.

Jules kicked off their 2023 releases with “The Daughter That My Mother Wanted,” a collaboration with Miki Ratsula, followed by singles “Mommy Issues” and “Girls Will Be Boys,” culminating in their 5 track debut EP “Girls Will Be Boys” out now!
