A Fine Frenzy

by Marisa Brown
Though she was born in Seattle, Alison Sudol spent most of her life in Los Angeles, moving there with her mother when she was five. Despite the fact she was always interested in music, it wasn't until she was in her late teens, inspired by bands like Coldplay and Keane, that she began playing an instrument, the piano being her weapon of choice. After she had composed a few pieces, she sent out a short demo, receiving immediate response from Capitol Record's Jason Flom, who came to Sudol's house to hear her play and soon signed the young singer/songwriter. After a SXSW appearance in March 2007 (opening for The Stooges, strangely enough), Sudol, who chose to go by the name A Fine Frenzy as an artist (taken from Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream), she released her full-length debut, One Cell In The Sea, in July, accompanied by an opening spot on Rufus Wainwright's tour that summer. ~ Marisa Brown, All Music Guide
