  • Dot Allison is a Scottish singer and songwriter who has made significant inroads in electronic music circles, most notably as a result of her tenure fronting the band One Dove in the early 1990s. In addition to solo ventures, Allison's career has concentrated on collaborative efforts, and has seen her work beside the likes of Death in Vegas, Hal David, Arab Strap, Scottish dance duo Slam, Kevin Shields, Pete Doherty / Babyshambles, Gary Mounfield, and club stalwarts Massive Attack. Allison released her debut album, Afterglow, in 1999 to generally positive reviews. A song-oriented pop outing, it was followed by the electro and house music inspired We Are Science in 2002. In 2007, she released the folk and psychedelica influenced Exaltation of the Larks. Allison's touring group includes members of The Fall, Two Lone Swordsmen, Tindersticks, Death in Vegas, Massive Attack, and Tokyo Windbag. Stylistically, her music has been described as "trip-pop," and owes a great deal to British electronic music of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Allison is scheduled to release a new album, titled Room Seven And A Half, in September 2009. It features a guest appearance by Pete Doherty on the songs 'I Wanna Break Your Heart' and 'Portrait Of The Sun', which he co-wrote. Paul Weller also appears on 'Love's Got Me Crazy'. Dot will also be appearing on various movie and television soundtracks in 2009. She contributed vocals to the track "Without Discord" on the soundtrack to the Channel 4 series Henry 8th: The Mind of a Tyrant, written by Philip Sheppard. Additionally, Allison has recorded the score to a new horror genre film entitled "Triangle". A a collection of past collaborations and rarities is also in the works.
