What Inspires LA-Based Recording Artist Ali Handal To Roll Out Of Bed Every Morning? Well When It’s Not Her Oversized Cat Indy Meowing Loudly In Her Ear It’s The Opportunity For Her To Spend Another Day Expressing Her Passions Through Her Music. Ali Quit Taking Piano Lessons To Pick Up The Guitar When In 7th Grade She Got Her First Taste Of Led Zeppelin. Blown Away By Jimmy Page’s Explosive Riffs And The Band’s Carnal Grooves Ali Was Determined To Become Involved In Rock N Roll In Any And Every Way She Could. Three Guitar-Playing Boyfriends Later It Struck Ali That Perhaps It Might Be Better To BE In A Rock Band Rather Than Just Date All The Guitar Players She Knew Funny How Her Soloing Wasn’t Improving So She Got Serious About Mastering The Instrument Herself. Fast Forward A Few Years And We Find Ali Exploring Themes Of Passion Sex And Life As An Independent Young Woman On Her Debut CD Dirty Little Secret. The Songs Range From Aggressive Funky Rockers To Tender Ballads But Are Tied Together Throughout By Ali’s Passionate Dynamic Vocals And Insightful Lyrics. Oh Yeah—and By Her Guitar Playing—she Played Every Guitar You Hear On The CD. Her Funky Rhythm Guitar Style Reveals Influences Such As John Frusciante Red Hot Chili Peppers And James Brown While Her Soloing Explores The Blues-Infused Side Of Rock N Roll A La Slash Jimmy Page And Joe Perry. Ali’s Vocal Inspirations Range From The Fervent Breathy Wails Of Ani Difranco To The Dark Honeyed Brooding Of Fiona Apple. Ali’s Music Has Been Featured Both In Film And On Television Including Sex In The City Life As We Know It Joan Of Arcadia Dawson’s Creek And Many Shows On MTV & VH-1. Ali’s Songs Have Won Prizes In Several Contests John Lennon Songwriting Contest Unisong ASCAP And Her Music Has Been Heard Around The World From Airplanes Northwest/KLM In-Flight Entertainment To Pop Concerts In South Africa Ali’s Song “While You’re Here” Was Recorded By A South African TV Star . With Her Newest CD “Breathing Underwater ” Ali Taps Into Her Softer Side With An Intimate Vocal Delivery Reminiscent Of Norah Jones And Sarah McLachlan Painted Over Lush Acoustic Guitar Work Again Ali Plays All The Guitars You Hear On The CD . Throughout The Album Ali Creates A Delicious Intimacy Between Artist And Listener Treating The Theme Of Love Lost In Her Uniquely Bittersweet Way As Well As Offering Up Several Atypical Love Songs Written For Various Members Of Her Family. As Ali Consistently Moves Forward In Her Career She Continues To Explore Themes Of Love Passion And The Inner Battle Between Fearless Independence And The Longing For Companionship That Defines Both Ali Handal The Person And Ali Handal The Recording Artist.
