At 16:00, give 'r take, Newfoundland time, today, Allison began
sessions to create her next album, "This Little Bird". For this
recording, Alley has relocated to Corner Brook, NL - from her west-
coast Pacific island home, to a new nest on the Atlantic side of the
continent. As she sings in the album's title song, "same idea,
different sea".

Alley will be joined in this creative process by life-long musicians,
multi-instrumentalists and recording pros, Mike McDonald and Louis
McDonald. Of the brothers, Canada's Juno-winning troubador, David
Francey, has noted: "You rarely meet people so steeped in music - at
all its levels and aspects - as these two and would be hard pressed
to meet more accomplished musicians."

Vocals and piano tracks are being recorded at Gitanos' ~ one of the
finest venues on Canada's east coast. A supper club in the tradition
of 1940s New York and Montreal, Gitanos' was designed by
Newfoundlander Donna Thistle, inspired by the idea of gypsy
travelers "who select ideas and goods from various cultures and
redistribute them in other, often remote, communities."

In the spirit of the Beatles and the B Sharps (Homer Simpson's fab
combo), Alley is ready to shoot the moon.

Stay tuned...
