Alisa is currently booking her Spring and Summer "Performance and Pancake" Tour and needs your help. She is looking to play a private event for a group of friends in an intimate living room setting. For this tour, everyone will sit down and enjoy a pancake dinner together before Alisa's performance. Will it be a fun night? Is there sugar in syrup?... then YES!
If you are interested in hosting, shoot her a message.
Trouble:
Well ive recently wanted to take a jab at learning guitar. I feel like
it will help me write a little more uptempo : } So, to do so, I decided
to write a song using the few chords I knew to help me build up
my calluses. And from that, Trouble was born.
9vs Song:
It was an amazing moment when I wrote this song. I had so many things, thoughts and opinions that I wanted to say but had never given them a voice. So in one song, i broke the rules and let it all out....ENjoy!
Breathing:
I wrote it in my most desperate moment looking for relief from the pain. I didn't want to die but I didn't want to go on living like this. I held onto hope that God was listening, and that he somehow was going to make tomorrow better. So, I knew I had to keep myself breathing to stay alive, and the only way I could do that is keep myself singing. So I wrote a song.
Its Not Over:
From healing came hope an the ability to write again. The title of the song Its Not Over says it all. Now you and I must believe this.
DON'T FEEL OBLIGATED
BY ANY MEANS, BUT IF YOU
WOULD LIKE TO, YOU CAN

I grew up in the most loving family. I was like many other's, a PK. Grew up in the church, literally. I think I spent more time there than my own home. God took us all over the country when growing up. My dad was a dreamer and eveyones best friend. My mom, she was the logical one but so loving. And brother was my best friend. They were my Biggest fans, of my music and my dreams, and just simply of me.
But time goes on. The clocks dont stand still and life happens and with the blink of a blink, my life fell apart. My father passed away and I lost everything. My mom crumbled, and my brother found love, which is great but, he doesn't know how to be my friend anymore...
So i breathe. and shed a tear, and breathe some more. because i dont know what else to do. I still pushed for my dreams, I couldnt give up, Music chose me Long before I chose it. Ive been writing recording and touring for over 10 years now. Im 25 :} growin up! But what a road its been. Through out my younger years I could never quite keep up with other kids, physically mentally or emotionally. As a teen it got worse and worse, my body and brain were failing me. Sadly the doctors I kept seeing eventually dont know what to do, and rather than tell you that, they give up and tell you its all in your head and before you know it your on your way to a Psychiatrist. So i went for it. I believed I was crazy and put my trust in them. They gave me every kind of pill they could think of with all kinds of different combinations but only worse I got. It seems like they have given up on healing and given into the Drug Companies, I hear the money's great! All they did was write me a prescription for each symptom i had (chronic fatigue, IBS, anxiety, memory trouble, tremors....the list was endless) and never did they try to figure out WHY I was having all those symptoms. A girl so young should not have a body breaking down like that, but that was that, and the pills just kept coming in.
The pain i suffered i will never have words for. Its so much, too much. Only God knows how I stayed alive through it all. About a year ago I was finally on one of my first Real tours, and it was to be the Time of my life! But all I remember was driving each morning, finally getting to the venue and Bee-lining for the bathroom where I would collapse in the farthest stall and drown in a sea or tears. I begged God thousands of times just to take me home, I could tolerate physical pain, but this sickness was taking my brain, my ability to think, to remember anything to do ANYthing at all. I left that tour and went home and wanted to sleep and never wake up. It wasnt that I wanted to die, i just...didnt want to go on living in a tortured mind. BUT, i gave it ONE last shot and went, sat at the computer, spend hundreds if not thousands of hours on it and Literally GOOGLED my way back to health. I found a doctor who really wanted to get to the root of your problems and Address those.
MERCURY POISONING. I found out I had mercury poisoning. It was the BEST day of my life just to know something, to know its not all in your head. But getting the diagnosis was hard, it is such a touchy subject but let me tell you the truth, because i have LIVED it. There's a few ways you can get it.
1. Vaccines....they put it in there because its the Cheapest Preservative. It is linked to the HUGE Autism outbreak...of course the FDA wont say anything about it but silently they're starting to remove it from them.
2. Amalgam Fillings....Despite what our FDA says, your silver fillings DO LEAK!!!!! We are like the last country that even uses them, and in other countries the government is actually paying for the people to have them removed because it is so toxic to even have in the environment. The dentist who have come out and took a stand have lost their license. Its INcredibly sad and Disturbing.
3. FISH. Fish contains mercury, some more than others. Mercury is SO SO so toxic that just getting a little too much in your systme will shut it down and your body cant filter it out and it just builds and builds and builds.
My story was that my mom didnt know you werent suppose to eat fish when your pregnant. We were in hawaii then so it was very easy to eat so much. The mercury built up in my system and left me weak ever since. So of course in such a weak state, i got a lot of cavities and you betcha they filled those suckers with amalgam and that was that.
Getting diagnosed is hard because after 30 days it leaves your blood and nestles in your bones and organs. You have to get a doctor to do a Chelation Test! Also, as for getting your fillings removed, you HAVE to get a special doctor who does amalgam removal. If they don't do it right you can end up far worse! And be prepared for the fight! Many many many people particularly doctors will tell you that its all a joke. But i am LIVING proof....living proof of its horror and of the healing that can take place. To get through this you have to be ready a long road, but THIS story ends well : }
Moving on, Since finding the Right doctor I have been going through treatments for almost a year now, its called Chelation. The mercury has left me so sick, damaged and devastated....but hasnt killed me so I fight. I am much much better than i was a year ago, and i cant even imagine a year from now....Can't imagine! : }
The mercury fight is a BIG one. But when you have tried EVERYthing else, you have to start questioning your doctor and the systems that are trying to protect us. Theyre human and they can fail too. Hopefully theyll right their wrongs and maybe you wont have to suffer as I have. And if you are......
my heart breaks.
for you.
FIGHT. Don't give up. I am here, for you, as so many of you have been there for me.
I know you may of wanted to know more of my music background and story of what i do, but well,
my life IS my music. it just is. I've written through the pain, just to keep breathing to stay alive. God has given me music to keep me alive. He's given me the ability to love the little things when all the big things keep crumbling. I love Snow and Pancakes and Colors and Boys and my Dad and I have faith and doubts and hopes just like you.
Love me or dont. Like me or not.
I wont lie to you. I will love you the
best i Know how. And I thank you
for giving me a chance...
To accurately research it, Type in Mercury Toxicity. Its considered mercury poisoning only in the first 30 days while still in the blood. After that its considered mercury toxicity. I will help in ANY way or direct you as best I can.
Love
Forever and Always,
me
"When Alisa sings you will not Stray or lose interest in her angelic voice and talent. It is just so Malleable and natural. Her lyrics are true, real and very inspiring to say the least." - CARY BARLOWE (Grammy Nominated, of Luna Halo)
"I rarely hear voices like Alisa Turner.
Her voice is soaring and endearing, reflecting the depth of her soul -
something very few singers can do.
the love and loss she has encountered in life seem intertwined in her
songs and immediately connect with audiences who hear her.
Robbie Seay Band has had the joy of having Alisa open for us on
several bills and its always such an honor to share music together.
Alisa has a long and bright future sharing her art and music and I'm
proud to call her friend."
- Robbie Seay (of the RobbieSeayBand)

Strange day. After watching a documentary about streakers suffering from over exposure, I took a nap. It was a short one. I woke up a midget. At first I was freaking out, jumping around, trying to reach the wall phone. It tired me out. So I sat on a foot stool and placed my face in my hands wondering why this had happened to me. In the middle of self-pitying I started noticing how much fun it was to kick and swing my feet. I was smiling again, and found myself running through the house at full speed... wrestling with my now giant puppy. Oh, the joy! I hadn't had so much fun in years! We laughed and played and laughed until we both fell asleep exhausted on the living room floor. Then I woke up and ruined the whole damned thing.
