It took Mike Allan 10 years to release his debut album, The Let Go Road - a compilation of roughs, demos and recordings which grew up with him, from the age of 11, through school & college, emerging on his 21st birthday at his album launch party in 2005.
Once described by The Bean Scene as "Stevie Nicks doing Ryan Adams", Mike's distinctive voice draws the listener in and every song is sung with conviction.Recorded, Engineered & Mastered by Dawn of the Replicants' Dave Little, "The Let Go Road" delivers strong hooks and textured harmonies, richened by beautiful vocal support from Rachel Duff & Lizi Trafford, with Jamie Smith on Piano giving magic to If I Loved You.Mike's new album was released on 12th October. Produced by Andrew Taylor of Dropkick, "For What You Did" is richened with catchy guitar hooks and bright, sunny harmonies. A retro alt-country affair. You can buy it for £6.00 (including P&P) from Mike's website. It is also available from all good download sites including iTunes.Mike has most recently played with the legendary Frank Usher & Queen of the Edinburgh acoustic scene, Lynsey Hutchinson.New Single, "The Ghost Of My Old Man" will be released soon to coincide with the new film from JIP/Silenti Films entitled "The Slaughterhouse".
