Lara McAllen
Born in 1982, Lara McAllen always had a fascination with the music world since she was little, starting to dance at the tender age of 5.
While young, Lara tasted a bit of the what is to perform live, being a backup dancer for Shakira at 18.
Her dreams started to come true when she recorded a couple of demos with DJ Tonka -'Don't Cry', 'The Garden' & 'Get Back'-, the latter was a moderate club hit all over Europe, which is a fantastic feat for a brand new recording artist in the industry. Further success was also found with the Top 10 Dance Hit 'Free (Let It Be)' produced by Stuart; the track also cracked the official UK Top 50 Singles with little promotion.
In 2003, a group of producers called 'Angel City' wanted to record a cover of the massive 'Love Me Right (Oh Sheila)' which would later score them their first UK Top 20 single (enjoying two weeks at #11) and starting to make Lara a recognized face in the UK Dance scene. A follow up single, 'Touch Me (All Night Long)' also charted inside the Top 20 at #18, giving them their second hit in a row.
Obviously, this wasn't enough for Lara and Angel City, so a third single would be subsequently released. This time the fantasic 'Do You Know (I Go Crazy)' got the chance. The song was a big club hit all over Europe and a Top 10 hit in the UK, charting at #8. After this situation, Angel City decided to release yet another single before the album hit the stores, 'Sunrise' was the chosen track (which would also compete in a strong week for single releases in the UK) - even considering that, 'Sunrise' got to #9 and the 'Love Me Right' album went Top 45.
Sadly, Angel City and Lara decided to part ways in 2005, and Lara is currently recording a couple of tracks for her solo debut. Some demos have been leaked, like the electro rock influenced 'Backup'. Lara McAllen's solo project is expected to be launched in 2007. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
