Synopsis

Album Description

With her newest CD, "Breathing Underwater," Ali Handal continues to explore themes of passion, sex, and the inner battle between fearless independence and the longing for companionship that defines both Ali Handal the person and Ali Handal the recording artist. This album is an acoustic-guitar driven collection of songs, sparsely arranged and produced by Ali and her co-producer Tim Bomba. Ali plays all of the guitars on the CD, and is accompanied by Wes Wehmiller on bass (of touring bands Duran Duran, Missing Persons, Lisa Loeb) & David Leach on percussion (of Ben Harper's Innocent Criminals). Ali treats the familiar theme of love lost in her uniquely bittersweet way, as well as writing several atypical love songs for various members of her family (although nothing close to her funky feline love song "Indy" from her first CD - there are no sampled cat meows on this whole record!). Ali's music has been featured both in films and many TV shows, including Sex in the City, Joan of Arcadia, Life As We Know It, Dawson's Creek, and several shows on MTV & VH-1.

CD Reviews

Ali Handal is Awesome, and so is this CD!

10/15/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Who says girls can't play rock guitar? Ali Handal proves those critics wrong! Not only by playing but by writing or co-writing all the tracks on the CD. Tight play and awesome fretwork. Who needs (or would want) all the bleach blonde pop clones out there when we have the real thing right here!"

She rocks!

"Ali plays the guitar like she means it, writes lyrics that are intelligent and witty, melodies that stick with you, rhythms you can dance to, and she can raise the roof with the power of her singing!"
