Long, long ago, in the mountains of Appalachia, she began performing at open mics, in tiny bars, and very late at night. A little scared, a little sweet, and a little girl with a guitar and a glass of whiskey. A little less long, long ago, she was singing and strumming around campfires on beaches and jetties, on docks and in warehouses along the Oregon coast, until the Motor City called her heart back home, and she listened.

Before recording her first solo release, "Hideaway", in 2000, she was playing regularly at festivals, in bars, at coffee shops, and on street corners all over Detroit. Along the way, "The Twilight Babies" were born, and Alison is best known as their lead singer. The Twilight Babies is an electronic band who mixes folk sensibilities with state of the art electronic music- creating a little bit of something that is very special. The Babies have released 3 albums; "If You Want Me To I Could Write It Down", "Middle of Something", and "Monster", and their work has not gone unnoticed- winning a few Detroit Music Awards, including Best Electronic Band, and Best Electronic Album.

Alison Lewis continues to perform very late at night, just as sweet as she wants to be- she may have a little glass of whiskey, she definately has her guitar, but she is a whole lot less scared.
