Julie Ann Felix (14 June 1938 – 22 March 2020)[1] was an American-born, British-based folk singer and guitarist. She became successful in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

She later performed and released albums on her own record label. In 1966, Felix became the resident singer on the BBC television programme The Frost Report, presented by David Frost. She hosted her own shows for the BBC from 1967 to 1970, including the series Once More With Felix (the first episode was transmitted on 9 December 1967).

Felix lived in Chorleywood, Hertfordshire, England, until her death, still recording and performing, appearing on stage on her 80th birthday in 2018.[2]
