Julie Christmas is an American musician from Brooklyn, New York. She is the former lead singer of defunct Brooklyn-based noise rock band Made Out of Babies^[1] and the former lead singer of defunct post-metal supergroup Battle of Mice.

Julie Christmas provided vocals to the song "Generation of Ghosts" by Mouth of the Architect on their 2008 release Quietly.

Julie is / was involved with Spylacopa, an experimental musical project headed by Candiria guitarist John LaMacchia, along with Greg Puciato of Dillinger Escape Plan and Jeff Caxide of Isis. Spylacopa released a self-titled EP in 2008.

To compose the themes of her debut album, Julie met with lofty collaborators from bands like Made Out of Babies, Dub Trio, Candiria, Victory At Sea and Spylacopa. The sound of this album is quite varied and difficult to label as different styles are present, mixing songs that are quite intimate, almost ballad-like with issues that are more direct and corrosive. The Bad Wife is the name of her first solo album.

In 2012, Christmas appeared on the record from beyond love by Strings of Consciousness.
