By 2016, she decided to further her career and make the big move to Nashville. Her hard work and dedication paid off, landing her first publishing deal in January 2018. She's now back home, opening for Frog Fest 34, ready to put on a performance of a lifetime.

A Jill-Of-All-Trades

Alyssa Trahan is so much more than just a singer. She's a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer, and many would say "the real deal". She has the true New York spirit and ability to get any job done by herself.

When it comes instruments, Alyssa can play just about every one of them. Most of her music actually includes her playing every instrument in the song. With a degree in Audio Engineering, she has easily produced countless tracks for herself and other artists around the world.

Ongoing Success

Prior to the pandemic in 2020, Alyssa was on fire when it came to live performances. She played over 100 shows a year, opening for some major country artists. Names you know like Charlie Daniels, Tanya Tucker, Josh Turner, Rodney Atkins, Lee Greenwood and SO MANY more.

The pandemic didn't slow her down either. She released a full-length album called "Baby Blues & Stilettos" which came out #9 on the iTunes Country Album Chart. Not only that, but it hit over 300-thousand streams in it's first week. Speaking of doing it all, she produced the album all by herself and played over 90% of the instruments on the record.

Where Else You've Seen Her

Alyssa's talents don't stop in the studio. She also has multiple film and commercial appearances to add to her resume. You may have also heard her music featured on TV shows like The Jimmy Kimmel Show and "The Young and the Restless".
