Listening to singer/songwriter Alicia Romano's debut album, "Happiness Is..." is like being given the privilege of an intimate glimpse into her soul - bold, forthcoming, breathtaking. Born and raised in the outskirts of Pittsburgh, where she continues to reside, Alicia has demonstrated an unparalleled ability to examine her life experiences from an unbiased perspective and unabashedly share them with all who will listen. From her beautifully poignant, "I Met A Girl," to her upbeat, optimistic title song, "Happiness Is," Alicia has cultivated a remarkable ability to draw listeners into her world through her soulful lyrics and expressively rich voice.
Alicia credits such complex and talented musicians as Dar Williams, Ani DiFranco, and Patty Griffin as influential in the development of her style and sound. As is customary of acoustic folk artists, Alicia's live performances are engaging and emotive for the audience, drawing them in through her comfortable, yet intense, storytelling style.
When asked to describe her music, Alicia flashes her charming, heart-warming smile and says simply, "I write about love." Anyone who is fortunate enough to experience one of her performances becomes wholeheartedly aware of how full, complex, and encompassing love, throughout her lifetime, has been and continues to be.

Geez...I had forgotten what a difference the "official" recording makes...I got a little choked up for a minute - I'll say it! You're something special, bubby!
i want the baby. is the baby for sale? actually, i prefer toddlers. i want to purchase the baby after it can walk and talk and say my name. make it happen...
Why is it that we can never have a conversation about anything without taking the 7:45 straight into the gutter? Well, I guess there was that one time that we were talking about...no, never mind...that was filthy too...
Holla! I just got back from Bonnaroo! I would love to party over the holiday..and I will bring the hubby!!!! Love it. SO true...But before that lets do something...HUGS!
You need to play in Pittsburgh sooner so I can quit being an a-hole and come see you. Did you see "PS I Love You?" It was a festival of weeping, don't go near it.
thanks for the b.day gift...you are too sweet!! when can we get some people together to catch up...that darn leah stole our chance for us all to hang!!
JT just called me and said that he has a couple progress notes that you might need at his place....he wants to know if you will come over and get them and make homemade yogurt with him.
poor child...I was calling her "daniel" for the past 6 months!! how cute is little leah laughlin?! so maybe a get together in july since little leah was in a rush to get into this world? hope all is good with you...coffee soon?!
I don't know what she meant either...and quite frankly I'm upset that I missed it. Story of my life...someone gets naked and I'm not paying attention. Don't worry Bubby...you're the only one I can truly share filth with and not only be understood but actually be encouraged to continue. Like the zoo in winter...
