Farah Alvin has been making a name for herself on Broadway and as a session singer for nearly a decade. "Someday" is her long awaited debut as a songwriter and solo performer. Drawing from a wide variety of lyrical and musical influences, Farah has created a unique sound, blending the worlds of folk, jazz, pop and blues with deeply expressive and ironically humorous lyrics.

"... Someday is full of lots and lots of everything I like in pop music: good tunes, smart lyrics, gorgeous singing, spare and striking arrangements.
"I especially like "Tragedienne," a song about two women whose friendship is on the rocks..."
"...If you've enjoyed the music of Erin McKeown, Jonatha Brooke, Allison Moorer, Luciana Souza, Dave's True Story, the Lascivious Biddies, or any of the other slightly off-center singer-songwriters and pop groups championed in the past by the like-minded proprietors of this blog, my guess is that Farah Alvin will suit you right down to the ground. Check her out. "
