Alyssa Reid has been known for her production-heavy pop singles such as “The Game” and “Dangerous.” However, on November 27th fans are in for a treat as she releases Phoenix, a simple, stripped-down record containing 10 very different tracks. With just her vocals, a piano, and a guitar, this is a side of the pop artist that audiences have yet to hear.

Here is what Alyssa had to say about the new album:

“The release of Phoenix is sure to surprise most. I’ve decided to break away from the ‘polished pop’ sound on this record, and show everyone the more raw side to my writing. Featuring co-writes from all genres, this album breaks down my writing, and strips all of the elements down to the basics, leaving nothing but the story. No glitz. No glam. Just emotion.” – Alyssa Reid

Phoenix Tracklisting:

1 Suffocating
2 We Are Stars
3 Phoenix
4 Beautiful
5 Tomorrow
6 Can’t Keep Waiting
7 Dangerous
8 Lonely Heart

Bonus tracks:

9 Tomorrow (Radio version)
10 Dangerous (Radio version)

The record will be released in stores and online on November 27th via Wax Records. Pre-order starts November 13th.




This sounds like an interesting idea, she's had some acoustic tracks on her previous albums and I've liked them, plus Tomorrow sounds lovely too wub.gif

Listening to this now, it's pretty good. Beautiful is nice. Would sound great with a string section on it.
