With the album complete, Alison is ready to take AWAKE to the world, kicking off with Coachella on April 13 and 20 (she will become the highest billed female DJ in the Festival’s history), followed by Belgium’s Tomorrowland Festival and a North American tour across August.

After Coachella, Alison is heading back to Australia to throw three intimate album launch parties in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. Instead of a festival stage, the lucky attendees will get to see Alison in a club for the first time in years. Pre-order the album at select outlets HERE to receive a ticket to the party of your choice. Tickets are strictly limited, first in best dressed – get ready to sweat!

AWAKE is the sound of Alison emerging from her own darkness. A mix of digital-pop and incendiary beats, AWAKE sees Alison blaze new territory – sonically, vocally, emotionally.

“I just wanted to go bigger and really push myself,” Alison explains. “Vocally, I can hear a massive difference. I’m a lot more comfortable with my voice now and I’m not afraid to get on the mic and just go for it.”

The title AWAKE came to Alison in a dream. “I think it was my subconscious telling me things,” she reasons. “The more I wrote, the more it seemed the perfect name.”

To make that dream a reality, Alison immersed herself in the process of making the album, lending her writing and producing skills to every track on the record.  She also recruited a red-hot roster of collaborators including Joel Little (Lorde), Illangelo (The Weeknd), Party Favor (Mad Decent) and long-time BFF Lido (who also worked on Run).

“Joel Little’s so awesome and chill,” she says about her sessions with the Grammy Award winner. “He’s innovative, empathetic and doesn’t judge you.”

Also joining the party are some of Alison’s favourite next gen rappers on vocal duties. Ohio rapper Trippie Redd reigns on the ambient “High” while L.A. young gun Buddy channels his chill vibes on the tropical pop of “Cry”

In a major coup, Chief Keef – who’s previously worked with Kanye West, Lil B and Travi$ Scott – guests on “Dreamy Dragon”, throwing down rhymes over euphoric breakbeat house.

“It’s the perfect mash-up of his world and mine,” Alison says about the Chief Keef collaboration. “He was so much fun in the studio. I was playing the track super loud and he just put his ear right against the speaker. During takes, he was dancing in the booth.”

Making music saved Alison, and she hopes it’ll help others face their own trials. “If you’ve got a voice and a platform, you can use it for real communication,”she adds. “I want to make a track that someone will hear and be like ‘shit, I totally get what she’s feeling and if she can get out, maybe I can too.’ I don’t want them to be afraid to talk about it.”
