Artist Of The Month Flags Big Year For Allison Crowe
Website: http://www.allisoncrowe.com Music: http://www.allisoncrowe.com/WhetherImWrong0128.mp3 Collected Sounds, the Minneapolis, U.S.-based guide to women in music, has made Allison Crowe its Featured Artist this month. (http://www.collectedsounds.com ) Collected Sounds profiles such well-known-and-loved acts as Madonna, Ani DiFranco, Tori Amos, Tracy Chapman and Tanya Donelly, alongside worthy new artists. In spotlighting Allison, Collected Sounds' Producer Amy Lotsberg, (an early champion of such independent artists as Vienna Teng and Regina Spektor), says: "I figured she had some fun things going on and it was high time to call some more attention to her again". In her review of Allison's latest CD, Lotsberg notes: "I've been an admirer and supporter of Allison Crowe since I reviewed her first EP, '6 Songs' in October of 2002. I was stunned then, as I am now. This incredible chill-inducing voice coming out of a young person is such a rare treat... This girl's the real deal." And, there ARE plenty of fun things going on with Allison Crowe this year ~ recording and live performances that further demonstrate her supreme, and singular, artistry. This past weekend, Allison wrapped shooting of a live-in-the-studio concert to be released on DVD later this year. "Whether I'm Wrong", Crowe's potent song featured by the UNESCO-endorsed New Songs for Peace project, ( http://www.newsongsforpeace.org/spotlight-200403.html ), will be a single release to international television. Producer/Director Alex Postowoi, whose camera-work is primarily seen in a host of major motion pictures and television shows, has previously shot music videos for Bif Naked, Jann Arden and Joan Armatrading. The songs were recorded at Turtle Studios in White Rock, B.C. by Producer/Engineer Larry Anschell (K-os, Pearl Jam, Sarah McLachlan). Next month, Crowe returns to Turtle studios to complete her Midnight Syren album. While these audio and video projects are in the works, some other audio and video tracks, acknowledging Allison's inspirations, have been newly posted online: including covers of some favourite Tori Amos songs and archival footage of Allison's 2001 performance at the World Wide Jammer Convergence in Seattle, Wa. ~ a gathering of Pearl Jam fans (AKA Jammers) from over 30 U.S. states, Canada and other PJ-friendly locales. This music can be found in "Studio B" @ http://www.allisoncrowe.com/music2.html (Studio B is home to Allison Crowe's rare and live recordings. Her released tracks are now in Studio A @ http://www.allisoncrowe.com/music.html ) And, launching her live concert calendar this Spring, Allison Crowe will perform two nights in Victoria, B.C. - this Thursday, March 24, and Friday, March 25 at 8 p.m. These concerts, at Wood Hall, in the Victoria Conservatory of Music, are to help raise awareness and funds for that city's Girls' Alternative Program (GAP/Options). Full details on the concerts and the cause is online @ http://www.allisoncrowe.com/tour.html North American and European tour dates are also planned for 2005.
