First finding her voice when singing in church, Ally’s knack for her craft quickly transformed into something more resembling a life’s true love and central passion. Following years ceding her individual creative spirit to a group’s collective mission, Ally is ecstatic to at last paint her own portrait: a rich tapestry decorated with history and culture, passion and commitment. For a lifelong singer like Ally, who by age 12 was already shuttling between her native San Antonio and Los Angeles to write and record music with some of the industry’s key players, arriving at this moment feels nothing short of a dream fulfilled. Many first met her as a solo contestant on “The X Factor”.
