When people think of POP Music they may think Shallow, Strictly Hook and many times Unsubstantial... ALLEGRA is on a journey to change that - to make POP music all of the sticky, hook filled, easy to listen to, radio friendly music that it is, but with substance, passion and depth of other genres like blues, soul and folk. Her goal is to give the face of pop a makeover. For the past 15 years, Allegra's had an investment in her music. She started writing songs when she was in high school in Encinitas, CA with her first band, 'Next Exit'. The band consisted of Allegra on vocals and guitar, a drummer and a violinist. Since then she's compiled a repertoire of originals and cover songs that can span up to (and then some) 5 hours of music. From Cruise Ships to Songwriting Competitions, Weddings to Private Parties, Major venues to Cover Shows at Dive Bars, Allegra's husslin', playing 10-15 live shows a month, bucking up and bearing it all for crowd after crowd of vast demographics. She's making her way to the top in the music biz one set of open ears at a time.
