Allison Crowe in Concert December 27, 2007

Allison Crowe has a voice to fall in love with. Rich and dark, it seems to come from a place most singers can only dream of accessing. Her songs are filled with raw passion and her voice celebrates the music with a bluesy rock–gospel intensity. Her controlled vibrato, silken rasp, and powerful projection will rivet your attention.

That’s what critics ‘round the world say about this exciting 26-year-old vocalist and pianist.

Crowe’s eclectic repertoire stirs Leonard Cohen, The Beatles, Broadway and more into her original blend of rock, jazz, folk, gospel and soul. It's a joyous sound ~ "Elton John meets Edith Piaf". JoniMitchell.com’s Bob Muller says: "Treat yourself to one of the mightiest talents on the singer-songwriter scene today." NPR’s Ross Hocker calls a show by Crowe "the most honest, heartfelt, and directly intimate concert in my entire life."

Allison Crowe returns home to Canada from Europe where she was a sensation at the John Lennon Northern Lights Festival. Her performance, labeled “awesome” and “spine-tingling” by the Festival Director, brought down the house - an audience which included John Lennon's family alongside the Queen's Master of Music, Sir Peter Maxwell Davies.

Every song radiates sincerity, creative flair, and emotional intensity. This is not casual music. Be prepared to be amazed. Catch Allison Crowe while you can.

“Soulful. Alive. Joyous. Grievous. Real, true, music is what I want to make.”
– Allison Crowe.
