This week's featured local musician is singer-songwriter Alicia Baylor. Originally from Florence, Montana, Alicia's quickly gaining much deserved attention on the local folk circuit.

I have watched Alicia perform numerous times and I also own a copy of Underfallen, she is a wonderful performer. Alicia is a natural on stage she always looks comfortable infront of a crowd. She has a great voice and is fun to watch. Keep up the good work Alecia and keep on singing.

I might be a little prejudiced, but I love Alicia's songs. She has a poetic heart and a way with words and music that is easy on the ears. I play her CD every chance I get and make all of my friends listen to it. We want to hear more from Alicia.

"Back in the day" I loved Jewell....but she has fallen under to Alicia Baylor!
BRAVO!

By Kathy, 11-03-05

Thanks, Alicia, for sharing your lovely voice and music with us! I look forward to hearing more, live. Where are you playing next?

Sweetness!

I am a HUGE music fan, especially that of Nanci Griffith, Jewell, Iris DeMent, Megan James and zillions of others! I grew up with a father who is a world class fiddle player, so I attended weekend jam sessions during my childhood, thus planting the seed to seek out good music and to listen to it daily! I will now have to add Alicia to my list of 'must have' and 'must hear more of' music. Great job, and I can't wait to hear more! Or better yet, see you in person!

Alicia is my favorite local performer! I love watching her perform, she definitely has an amazing voice and songs that touch you. All of the songs on her CD are wonderful! Please keep us posted on where you will be performing next time.

We saw you...skinny dipping, city beach, Sandpoint, ID. Ever since then, we have been madly in love with you. Searching the country-side, day in and day out for our sweet, sweet, Alicia. Then again, in Mizzou, where the beer flowed like wine. Your cd kicks ass (like, big ass, like, 2livecrew back-up dancer ass)! We love you and miss the hell out of you! Call us, baby, peace.

By Alicia, 11-04-05

Hello everyone. WOW. Thanks for the nice compliments and encouragement. And to my Sandpoint friends- I appreciate the fact that you posted that comment after my mom posted her's. She doesn't need to know that stuff!Haha.

I guess I do have a bit of "show" on Thursday 11/17 at the OLD POST PUB in Missoula opening for some friends of mine. I'll have my CD there available (which I recorded mostly at my house on my own). Cheers to Kirk for creating this page in the first place and asking me to be including! See you soon I hope (:

Alicia is the best singer I know, really. When she's famous she WILL remember us all. Luv this girl!!!!

By Carleen Clark, 11-04-05

Alicia- I am so proud of you! Wish I could hear you play live sometime! When I move back to the NW from Cali, I must come to a show. You sound great! Are your CDs available online? Thanks for sharing your music with us!

great performances...but i can't believe her sister is not mentioned in any of her music!

By Bonnie, 11-05-05

Wonderful Alicia. What a voice!!!! Where has the time gone and where have you been hiding? I never knew....
I'll have to get one of your CD's but since I won't be able to make it the 17th, maybe I can order it from you. I'll email you..

PS: I sent your song over to my best bud in England and he was impressed!

Alicia rules!
I am so impressed. Who is this girl?

By Amanda Schild, 11-08-05

When I want to sing and dance in my kitchen I grab Alicia's CD. Alicia voice is beautiful!! Her music is fun and I love her songs. I knew she was powerful when I let my bother listen to her CD and when he was leaving my house he asked if could borrow her "CD". That was about 4 mnths ago and plan on getting it back anytime soon. Love, her #1 fan.... Don't forget me when you are famous.

By Donna, 11-10-05

After listening to you at Liquid Planet, my Daughter and Son-in-law are telling all their friends about you! Thanks for a very enjoyable listening experience and we all look forward to the next time........

By Becky Jackson, 11-10-05

Her local life inspired lyrics are amusing and her rhythm intoxicaing. My foot unconciously taps her rhythm well after the music stops! Alicia is an unassuming musical genious! People were waiting for the Underfallen CD well before it came! This web site rocks!! PS. keep it coming Alicia! - B. Jackson

By Polly, 11-11-05

Alicia's CD is so good, and her voice is beautiful. I highly recommend it, and seeing her live makes for a special time. I hope Alicia continues to soar, and bring good music to Missoula. You rock!

By Talitha Neher, 11-11-05

Absolutely brilliant performer on all levels--well-crafted and lyrical pieces are pleasing musically, tell a story, evoke an emotional response, the whole bit. The English major in me is thrilled to pieces to find lyrics that can stand alone. Real, honest-to-good deft-hand-with language lyrics that aren't painfully vapid and insincere. You whup a llama's ass.

By V Martin, 11-15-05

I've always loved Alicia's music, but I have newfound respect for her after that skinny-dipping comment...she must get that from her wildest auntie. Good stories make good music. Keep it up Alicia!

By Miriam Stevens, 11-18-05

Alicia....the most talented person I have ever known. I love your music!
