9PM Showtime

While staying indier than indie and completely ignoring the hipster rulebook, through word of mouth with very little radio or media hype, Alison is making the kind of soul music that music fans love. True music lovers have always responded to an amazing voice singing great songs, and they always will- from Aretha to Adele, this is timeless music that transcends style and fashion, something for the silent majority of listeners who aren't interested in uffy pop OR the trendy flavor of the month.

Working with multi-platinum guitarist/producer Kevin Bowe (Paul Westerberg, Etta James, Jonny Lang), drummer Peter Anderson (Polara, Honeydogs) and bass player Justin Rieken (Diamondhead, Mick Sterling and the Irresistibles, Cate Fierro), Alison has become one of the most popular live acts in Minneapolis; she has sold out the Dakota Jazz Club over a dozen shows in a row, and is now lling 500 seat theaters. Alison's releases have sold over 14,000 units and counting. She just released her fifth album "Alison Scott's A SOULFUL CHRISTMAS" in conjunction with a very successful 7-city tour throughout December 2013. She followed it with the release of her single "Hallelujah," a Leonard Cohen cover, in February. Now, already in the works, is a new album of originals, due to release in late 2014.
