Allison is a seasoned singer who is no stranger to the stage. She earned her Masters from Juilliard and immediately started making a name for herself as a versatile accompanist in the studio and on the road, providing keyboards, viola/violin, guitar and backup vocals for Suzanne Vega, Paula Cole, Joe
Jackson, Cyndi Lauper, Shania Twain, Angelique Kidjo, Jann Arden, Tracy Chapman and Pat Benatar.

As a songwriter/producer, she recently completed her debut cd "Pretty Colored Lights". "I Can't Get Over You," Allison's pop-ballad, recently won first prize in a contest called UNISONG. Also a winner is her Pop Uptempo / Dance "Automatic" which won TOP 20 FINALIST.

"The real surprise here is not her musicianship, which is a given, but the strength of her songwriting skills, and the power of her voice." - Kingston Daily Freemen
