ALISON'S STORY:

Alison Fleming is an English songwriter and recording artist from Yorkshire, now living in Colorado, United States.  

Her parents come from the NE of England. Both were very musical. Classical and jazz was often playing in the house.

Alison never became fluent at reading music; she had a knack for remembering the notes by heart. Poetry writing came easily. At age 17 she took up guitar.

Her first songs were composed on acoustic guitar and were folk-like ramblings about love, the world, and the human condition. 

After a while, she had put together a basic home studio. She decided to test the London waters by sending her songs to music A&R representatives in the capital.

The response was enthusiastic with the advice to put the songs into better shape.

In 1986 she began to work with Producer Tony Lowe whose fresh approach with her songs caught the attention of Chrysalis Records and subsequently Hit and Run music publishing.

In the early 90's she took the opportunity to perform her songs in public houses around her local area.

In 1995 Alison relocated to the USA. Tony Lowe and Alison continued to co-write and record, which led to more albums and great highlights when in 2007 and 2008 two of their co-written albums made it onto the GRAMMY lists.

By 2012, Alison started to extend her repertoire by recording solo. Coincidentally at that time she was approached by Producer Paul Baggott  who offered his production services.

2017/2018: Paul Baggott produced Alison's debut solo albums out on CD, 'Freeway', and ‘Freeway - The Remixes’; followed by a double album of both, for download-only, aptly named ‘Freeway – Songwriter and the Remixes’.

2022: (Dec) Alison relocated from SW Missouri to SW Colorado, United States.

2023: album ‘Play On Words’, produced by Paul Baggott.

2024: album ‘Play on Words - The Remixes’ produced by Paul Baggott.

2026: (Feb) single ‘Fool Rumour’, produced by Paul Baggott.

Alison continues to write and record out of her new space, ‘Alpenglow Studio’.

Genre wise - if you like storylines, or an artful diversity the likes of Kate Bush, sandy-soul vocals reminiscent of Annie Lennox, or a mood for the dramatic (come Bjork) this album is for you
