Fly

The Dre Allen Project feat. Dawn Robinson

Nice Tunes

WE SAY

This is the debut single from US rock/soul artist Dre Allen, and features his wife Dawn Robinson (En Vogue and Lucy Pearl). It's in the Evanescence ball park but what caught our ears was the song, which sounds like a very big hit indeed. Not an easy project to break, but huge potential here. Nice Tunes website
