Allie Dunn – “Subway Surfing”

Born and raised in New York City, this singer and songwriter grew up listening to a potpourri of different musical styles, from Frank Sinatra to The Sugarhill Gang. Although her love for music was clear from a young age, she decided to study to become a sports medicine doctor. After graduating she moved to Nashville trying to define her sound. Now she’s back in New York with a retro-soul/pop sound. Inspired by Lake Street Dive and Allen Stone, she debuted with “Tom Petty” in 2021.

Sharing the relatable situation in which you see the world throwing obstacles on your path, while you’re just trying to live your life the best way possible, her new single encapsulates the feeling of letting go and enjoying what you can. Clearly having found her niche in the retro-soul/pop sound, it’s the funky bass line, invigorating wah-wah guitars and peppy percussion that give this jubilant groove a highly danceable vibe, while her spirited vocals inject a sense of joyous spontaneity.
