About Me: | Alan was born in 1981, and since the tender age of five has been influenced by his love of music which has led him to become one of the world's most 'unique' singer/songwriters. After hearing Jim Diamond (former PhD lead man) singing 'Hi Ho Silver' in 1986, Alan decided that he wanted to be in music.
At the age of fifteen, Alan started writing and composing his own songs, and not long after he started performing to keen audiences and won himself a number of dedicated fans. His first live public performance was at a talent contest in 1997 which he won, after performing three songs. In 2000 he entered a showcase at which he performed the song "In My Heart", which was written by Alan's mother, Anne, in memory of his brother who passed away in 1994. The showcase won Alan his first manager and many more enthusiastic fans who were immediately hooked on his powerful vocal range and emotional stage presence. Alan's music has gone on to become extremely popular with young, middle-aged and older people, with his versatile styles ranging from soft-rock, pop, soul, blues and even country. "He can please anyone! and he can even sound different in every song he sings!" said a producer from England. But it isn't just his Music which attracts fans, but also his sincere and extremely approachable personality. His love for people is as strong as his love for his music. Alan's love of performing to an audience kept him busy between 2000 and 2004 when he performed in such events as self arranged concerts, variety shows and of course his own gigs. He has also performed with bands and was part of a duo called 'Back2Back' in the later part of 2004. His love for music also urged him to enter the business side of it when he formed an entertainment and production company with friend, Alan Bryson. Their company was also the label for Alan's 2005 EP 'Waiting For Your Call' which featured some of Alan's finest songs. In recent times, Alan has began working mainly 'online', on websites such as YouTube. He has also co-written with other artists and written songs for numerous people. In recent years, Alan has put tours and concerts on hold to concentrate on recording and promoting his work. A lot of his material can be found on websites such as YouTube. |
