About


Having spent a decade travelling the world with their unique sound, Nu Society look forward to performing their inimitable style of music. The latter part of their travels ground them to the USA, living in Miami and working for Disney, where they were awarded an ‘Oscar’ for ‘outstanding performers’ prior to their return to the UK.

The duo has played to every age group imaginable, receiving outstanding feedback after each performance. The marriage of these two highly seasoned talents assures exceptional results every time.

Julia was brought up in theatres and jazz clubs, the daughter of a successful jazz pianist. She followed in family footsteps and spent the early part of her career fully immersed in musical theatre and television, only to head directly into the music industry - performing and recording. 

Ret's musical journey began aged seven, playing solo flute on a weekly TV show. On completion of his music/composers degree, he played classical flute to great acclaim with touring symphonic orchestras around Europe. He later discovered his true genius in piano, electronics, composition and production. Ret’s other current projects include writing, producing and performing with his band “Base Mosquito”, writing and remixing tunes for the dance industry and producing raw, locally sourced artistes. All of Nu Society's tracks are played and remixed by Ret Alex in his studio.

Nu Society is both versatile and dynamic, equally at home covering most styles from simple piano and voice, through Pop, Funk, Dance, Dub, House, Electronica and Jazz, creating an atmospheric experience wherever they perform. Always preferring to work with the latest technology and equipment, Nu Society provides an exceptional array of music and cutting edge sound.

Great act if your looking for something a bit different to a standard sing-a-long band. We're the main act at our home festival and certainly delivered - on time, very professional set up and got the crowd up on their feet! Highly recommend.

We found Nu Society on the website and liked the sound of what they could offer. We wanted something a little bit more than just a disco and the idea of live music followed by a disco really appealed to us. It was a bit nerve wracking choosing a band which we didn't know but we needn't have worried. Nu Society were brilliant. Absolutely great. They sang the songs we chose and the atmosphere was fantastic. The range of songs they performed appealed to a broad range of tastes, everyone was up dancing at some point. We received several comments after the wedding to say it was the best evening entertainment they had experienced at a wedding. I would not hesitate to book Nu Society again.

Nu Society were fantastic and gave us a brilliant night. They were really friendly and by the end of the night we felt like we were waving off old friends. They got in touch a few weeks before the event to confirm details and find out if we had questions. They were punctual on the night, professional, courteous and made sure we had a fab night. Lots of people at the party commented on how great the band were. I would have no hesitation in booking them again. Thanks Nu Society!

What a great night we had for our Silver Wedding Anniversary. As soon as Nu Society arrived they were shaking hands with family & friends & taking the time to chat to everyone. Music style was very different - lots of familiar tracks with a tech twist. Dance floor grooving! Thanks to you both for being a big part of the celebration.

We had a great night, made all the better by Nu Society. Guests were delighted to have a live act and Nu Society worked hard throughout the night to get everyone up and dancing. The duo were very friendly, providing background and interval music as well as their sessions. I would recommend Nu Society to anyone arranging an event.

Hi Sam, Just a quick email to say thanks. Nu Society were excellent and well worth the money. Not only are they talented musicians but they work so hard to get people up and dancing. The venue wasn’t perfect but that didn’t deter them and they really made the difference. Please pass my thanks to them and I’m sure they will be back in Brighton very soon. Our friends loved them. Thanks Again
