AB15 9DX
Born and raised on a second-generation dairy farm in rural Ontario, Allison Lupton has always been immersed in Canadian folk life, but it took a love and intense study of Irish and Celtic music for her to find her way to the Canadian folk music tradition that she has grown up around. Her newest album, Words of Love showcases her original material, songs which fit so perfectly into the cannon of Canadian folk music that they could easily be mistaken for traditional numbers. Along with her band mates Andrew Collins, Shane Cook, Tony McManus and Joseph Phillips, Allison brings to life the best of the contemporary folk music scene in Ontario, while incorporating the Celtic influences that have been such an important part of the Canadian immigrant story as well as her own musical path.
After working with various bands and groups including Killiecrankie, which was regularly heard on CBC Radios legendary Max Ferguson Show, Allison began releasing music under her own name in 2001 with her debut album My True Love. The album launched her solo career, performing across Canada, the United States, and the UK. She has since recorded 3 solo albums and been featured on CBC Radios Vinyl Caf and BBC Radio nan Gidheal. Allison is a frequent collaborator with other artists, releasing singles with The Younguns (The Eve of Christmas Day), Craig Werth (When Trouble Comes) and the album So Lucky with Tannis Slimmon and Rosemary Phelan. She has also been featured as a soloist with The International, Kitchener-Waterloo and Cambridge Symphony Orchestras.
Allison is a multiple Canadian Folk Music Awards nominee for Traditional Singer of the Year and Vocal Group of the Year as well as Folk Music Ontarios Songs From the Heart grand prize winner for One More Day. With her new album, Words of Love, Lupton can count herself securely among Canadian folk musics finest contributors.
