Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
Suuupp, I am Holly Alison, an artist from the Central Coast, NSW. Basically I like playing sport (I have represented Australia in 2 sports Karate and Oztag) and love writing tunes. I made 2 releases this year and they were ‘Come Here’ which debuted at #1 on the Triple J Unearthed charts in both the pop, Indie and overall categories and ‘Give Me Your Heart’ which hit #5 and got a play on both Triple J and Triple J unearthed which I was pretty stoked about. I have a girlfriend who is pretty mint and we love cruising in the car listening to sick tunes. I am coming back from knee surgery so Music has definitely been my outlet for the past 10 months whilst I havnt been able to do anything physically. It’s only given me more time to work on tracks for 2018 which I am loving and can’t wait to show the crew (everyone).
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
My influences at the moment are definitely Blackbear, Khalid, Cheatcodes and Troye Sivan. These have changed majorly over the last couple of years. I used to go under the Alias of Holly Buchanan and my music was very indie pop and my influences were more Pink and Missy Higgins. Now it is very electronic and I am loving it so much more (this is also why I changed my Alias) Alison is my middle name and I use it because I had the change of genre but also because I never got to meet my Nan – Alison. Who my mum says I’m very much like. I have always had a love for RnB/Pop/Electronic (I am that weird human in the club that would start a dance battle cause I just love dancing to this type of style) but never thought I would have suited singing and writing this music but when my producer Aaron Lee and I get in the studio and push my stuff towards that genre I froth it HARD!!
What´s new right now?
I have super cool tunes ready to be released around February 2018 and I can’t wait. My favourite is a Collab that I have just finished with Airports, it is in a similar style to Blackbear/Cheat Codes and I’m soooo keen for the crew to hear it!! That will be my first release, I will probably release around 3 songs next year which I’m hoping everyone loves. Wouldn’t mind getting my tunes noticed worldwide next year, really want people to relate to them and want to share them based on how it makes them feel.
