A Los Angeles singer-songwriter whose work moves between personal reflection and social commentary.
For a sense of her range, listen to 'Crazy' from that first album, then 'Miss America' from later on. They're both just her and a guitar, but they're coming from different places.
Allen's songs don't shy away from what's happening around her. 'Silence is Violence' takes on political urgency, while 'Stripper Friends' tells a more intimate story. She writes plainly about her multiple sclerosis diagnosis and keeps performing through it.
She started playing open mics in LA and released her self-titled debut in 2017. The albums that followed, like 'No Human Is Illegal' and 'I'm Not the Girl,' show her leaning into both activism and personal writing.
