Bio

Growing up in Cochrane, AB, Alanna, now 20 years old, was 10 when she started pursuing her passion for songwriting, playing music and performing. By the time she was 15, she decided to pursue music full-time and left public school to finish her high school diploma over the internet.

Alanna now spends her time in Toronto, Los Angeles, and Calgary, writing and playing shows. Working with producers in Toronto and LA, Alanna is set to have new material out this year.

The latest EP from Alanna was released in 2010, entitled 'Wild Rose', available on I-tunes. 'Wild Rose' is a collection of songs written and recorded with Christopher Ward and Luke McMaster. This is the third EP Alanna released, releasing her first 5 song EP when she was 14, and a second at 16.

Alanna strives to have a long lasting career defined by ambition and determination. It's the all consuming focus on music that allowed Alanna to book a cross Canada tour on her own in March 2011, or to create a songwriting workshop and take it to over 20 public schools in Alberta.

Other career milestones are a song placement on the 'Degrassi Takes Manhattan' soundtrack, performance spots at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival, and $35,000 in career development support from AMP radio.
