Bio: Love's A Cure isn't just music; it's a bright, barefaced, open-vein testimony to knowing all too well what it's like to be human. It's the thoughts we've all had, the demons we've all shared, the meaning we all seek, and the hard edge we all walk while attempting to discover what the world has to... See Full Bio

“This album is an outstanding debut offering, and one of the best mixed and mastered albums we have come across this year. It is the kind of album that makes you smile and want to tell people how much you love them, no, really, trust me it does! We love Emily’s in Trouble and Giving it All Away. This album will appeal to those who like the lighter side of rock!”

— Georgina Enzer, Metality UAE

“Deriving influences from guitar-driven 90’s alternative rock tunes...The album opener's catchy chorus recalls the staples of great alt-rock radio in the nineties, with perhaps Sheryl Crow the best example of a contemporary. Andrews’ dynamic vocals continue to sail through the album’s 13 tracks. On “Lose Once” the addition of harmonica and background harmonies creates a luscious sound which helps give the album a cheerful ‘lift’. Andrews’ strengths shine through the upbeat tracks...the Americana/Folk flavors which are introduced in a couple of tracks (“Trip Me Up”) suit the singer/songwriter’s style well and play in her favor. The range in Allison’s vocals are a perfect fit for the country twang, and we’d definitely love to hear more of that. Love’s a Cure.....introduces a very promising talent...”

“Sultry rock siren Alison Andrews is set to release her debut album this Friday at Metal Asylum (rock & metal night) at Cheers Bar, The Lodge, Al Nasr Leisureland. She will be supported in the night by rocker Fatiniza, acoustic maestro Danny Shirran and top tribute act, The Rock Spiders. We caught up with Alison to find out more about her and the bands ahead of the launch.”

— Georgina Enzer, Metality UAE

“Metality UAE nabbed an exclusive interview with Alison Andrews, a South African singing sensation whose acoustic folk rock is truly beautiful. When Alison and Jaye joined together in 2007, they combined the beauty of Jaye’s songwriting with Alison’s strong and soulful vocals (think 1950′s female singers such as Doris Day and Wanda Jackson). This winning combination catapulted them onto stages in Cape Town and Taiwan, with regular gigs in Taipei and a performance at the prestigious Spring Scream Festival. Alison and Jaye are now concentrating on writing and recording their debut album Love’s A Cure, set for release in 2011. ”
