Artist History
ALISON has always written with the firm belief that the story is what carries the song. Her lyrics speak mainly of personal experiences in relationships and everyday life ..... from the 9 to 5 workday at the office ..... *HERE WITH ME* Young woman sitting in her cube watching the papers pile high, She'd rather be with you watching the clouds roll by, These people do not care that she has a life to live, They need her to stay there and give and give and give, It seems so unfair ..... to falling in love ..... *BRIDGES* The memory of those lips send shivers through her brain, And feelings long forgot have risen to be claimed, She didn't know that she would feel this way again, She didn't know that love would also be her friend ..... to falling out of love ..... *TRY* You're wonderful, at least you think you are but I don't see, You're marvelous, you tell your friends you are but not to me, Love me the way you want to be loved, Touch me the way you want to be touched, Could you try? |

Press Reviews
"If you turned on your radio today and heard Breathe & Believe (co-written by ALISON) you wouldn't believe it was by an LA-based unsigned band. They fit right in with bands like Matchbox 20 and the Goo-Goo Dolls" ... Seth ~ TheLAMusicScene.com ****************************************************************************************************
"If you have been yearning for rock with a strong Brit-pop influence, look no further than ALISON, a singer with a voice so gem-like you could use it to cut safety glass. She delivers her insightful vocals with ray-gun precision and a zesty sense of fun." ~ G-Man of the Tribune Newspaper Group ****************************************************************************************************
"Think of ALISON as an English Jewel with her own uniquely positive perspective on life & all its daily doings. Not too sugary or too full or angst, her lyrics are honest & fresh & her sound is a breathy ethereal folk-pop." ~ ALISON was featured artist on riffage.com |
