Alison David

Very many in the music world are already aware of the distinctive voice of Alison David, both through her many collaborations and her solo work. Certainly, those people who have met her or seen her perform will find it hard to forget her. A striking, six-footer with (literally) model and film star looks, Alison attacks the stage and commands attention with an enchanting, magical, stage presence.

It’s an almost other-worldly – yet, as it happens, entirely natural - persona. However you describe it, many would find it hard to argue with Red FM’s assessment that she is ‘Britain’s most charismatic female performer’.

Yet for all the spell-binding stagecraft, it’s the voice which stays with you. It’s a distinctive yet flexible voice that is impossible to pin down and contain. It contains a natural emotional content which, amongst others, causes frequent comparison to the likes of Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, Macey Gray and Corrine Bailey-Rae. However, Alison David is Alison David…everything she sings, everything she expresses, comes from a place deep inside…she couldn’t be or sound anything other than herself, in any event, and that makes her a true artist.

Alison already has one hell of a music resume. Many will know her for vocals with Red Snapper, more recently on Free*lands Supernatural Thing track. Just some of her other collaborations include Ashley Beedle (Black Science Orchestra), and The Egg. The Afronaught (Bugz In the Attic) mix of her track Dreams Come True whipped up a storm in the dance clubs and has provoked several remixes already. She has worked with Niall Rogers from Chic, Pete Townshend from The Who and Dave Stewart from The Eurythmics.

Alison’s movie debut was in Warner Bros release, Trauma, with Colin Firth and Mena Suvari. She plays a rock diva by the name of Lauren Parris and sings the soundtrack. Her latest film sound track is for the film ‘The Other Half’.

Alison David continues to perform and collaborate with all kinds of musical projects while at the same time pursuing her solo recording and performance career.
