WHAT THE ARTIST SAYS ABOUT THIS SONG:
” “One Last Ride” plays on the emotion of how fleeting the epic moments in life can be. The verses are about life flashing by while the choruses are about what’s happening now. That’s why the point of view alternates throughout the song. It’s a tug of war between the past and the present moment — you know you can’t go back so you make the most out of the time you have by sharing a final hoorah with a loved one.”
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Harris Allan’s unique and compelling lyrics and music finds its roots in Folk-Rock tempered by a vast range of life experiences. Imagine the style of music being played at an oceanside campfire beach party with family and friends. Capturing the sincerity of Jack Johnson infused with the catchiness of Ed Sheeran and a Lumineers-esque soul, his debut single—“One Last Ride” —is romantically moving and culturally relevant. His most recent single—”All In”—is an upbeat folk-pop tune with a laid back feel. It’s about the fun moments at the beginning of a relationship, and about the joy that comes from finally making a decision to go for it.
“All In” was released on Spotify and all other streaming and download platforms January 21, 2021.
Beginning his music career at 16 as a songwriter, Harris was lead singer and guitarist for Square9. The band released an EP recorded at Mushroom Studios in 2006 and performed in and around the Vancouver club scene.
Harris embarked on his solo music career as hip hop/rap artist Fallan Soldier, writing, performing and producing the songs for his album, “Above The Call Of Duty”, which was released in 2009. The album garnered success at college radio and charted on !Earshot. After the release of the music video “Fights”, Harris toured throughout Western Canada as headline artist for the “Move the Mountains” tour.
