Not only has she proved she has the heart and the vocals to make it to the top of the charts, but this Canadian Gal is all about heart. When Allison heard about Project Ocol trying to raise money for all the soldiers fighting for our Country, she wanted to do something special and together with her Label CATJAN RECORDS INC. decided to donate money from the sales of her new CD "Journey – A Special Edition”, now available in the USA
This money will go into a special fund set up for this cause.
The featured song on the CD, "Everyday I'm Hangin’ On " was co-written by a soldier's mother Tamra Lynn Smith (From Utah) with the help of Randall Johns & Carmella Inchierchiera. The feeling and emotion of this song is very heartfelt and powerful. This song has been dedicated to all of our military members and their families.
Allison is following her dream in Country music and is giving back with all her heart along the way.
She has established herself as a very talented artist in the Independent Music Industry and is now bringing her amazing talent to the United States.
When you hear her amazing voice and her gift, you will know that she is around to stay for a long time.

BIOGRAPHY
2008 has proven to be a very memorable year for this very talented recording artist. This is the year has marked the beginning of a very promising journey.
Allison Janisse is Canadian born and bred and has lived in many parts of Canada. Her love and passion for music started at a very young age and it has continued to grow with her. Smooth, fresh, toe-tapping, uplifting, and fun are all words which have been used to describe Allison's songs. Allison is a passionate singer/songwriter and performer, enchanting her audience with her unique blend of contemporary and country style using an animated, interactive delivery and soul-touching sound.
"Music to me is a huge part of my life. It is my way of expressing how I feel, happy or sad and everything in between. And it is something that has grown with me through life".
Her debut CD "Come Dance With Me", released at the beginning of 2008 was recorded, mixed and mastered within a short 6 months. The CD has been evaluated by many professionals in the industry. The CD as a whole was said to be a fantastic concert. So, it was decided to send the complete CD to Europe through Comstock Records International Promotions. Basically, the CD got off the plane and exploded on the European market, from Norway to Australia and New Zealand. All 11 songs have been getting strong airplay.
"I had the opportunity to work with an amazing producer, arranger and engineer who became a really good friend of mine...Gerry Dere. We had a great time working on all of my CD's."
During March and April, 2008, Allison was back in the studio with Gerry to record 2 new original songs. These were compiled onto a second CD with the originals from her first one to make an all original CD called "Journey". "I can't tell you how much fun it was recording "Who Do you Think You Are". This song has a ton of attitude and was a lot of fun recording it. I had a hard time trying not to laugh!!!"
Journey is a song that holds a big piece of my heart. It is a song that I had been trying to write for a very long time. Then my sister, Jennifer came and said "I wrote a poem for you, maybe it is something you can use". Well wouldn't you know it is exactly what I wanted to say."
These two songs were released on the European market in May, 2008. And have been very well received!
"Give me a Cowboy" hit US airplay in May, 2008 through Alan Young and CDX.
Allison's dream has always been to help those that need the help the most. When approached with the song "Everyday I'm Hangin' On" she new this was her way to help the men and women who are putting their lives on the line to keep us all safe from harm.
Allison loves performing and feeds off of the energy from the audience, sharing her passion for music. Plan on seeing a lot from this artist in the future. She is going to be around for a long time.
