Award-winning Canadian singer, songwriter and composer Allister Bradley continues to woo audiences in his native land with the upcoming release of his third full-length album.

Bradley studied classical piano throughout his childhood, and though music was his first love, he followed his parent’s advice and pursued a “stable career” as a software developer in Waterloo, Ontario. He continued writing songs on the side and, after 15 years, decided to head into the recording studio and pursue his original passion.

Bradley released his full-length debut album, No Games, in 2004 and its follow-up, Too, in 2008. Though both albums were released without much publicity, they continue to receive regular airplay to this day thanks to the strength of hit singles “If I Ever Cried”, “Goodbye, Bedford Falls”, “What A Day” and “Tip of my Tongue.”

His award-winning compositions have been compared to the works of Bruce Hornsby, Billy Joel, Elton John, James Taylor, Tom Cochrane and John Mayer. His piano-centric Jazz and Pop tunes speak to the human condition as he writes about the joys and struggles in people’s lives. “Sometimes a person doesn’t want to be cheered up,” he says, “but instead wants to know that somebody out there understands his or her pain.”

Bradley also loves sharing the craft of songwriting as a music educator, with both children and adult songwriters. “Music is fundamental to the human experience,” he says. “It promotes health and well-being, and helps our children become the next generation of thinkers and citizens.”

Allister Bradley is currently recording the songs for his third full-length album.
