International singer and musician, ALYA, wraps listeners into a warm holiday embrace in the form of her new album, No More Lonely Christmas. With a song for every listener, the album evokes the comfort and joy of the holiday season while sharing with the world ALYA’s evolving sound.
ALYA developed her lifelong passion for music at the age of seven. In her earlier years, ALYA honed her skills through classical training, ensembles, and vocal competitions. Striking a deal with her mother, who insisted she pursue the accordion simultaneously, ALYA began her studies as an opera singer around age 12.
ALYA’s musical style is a subtle mix of pop, dance, and ballad. From her pure voice to honest emotions, she is able to captivate audiences of all ages around the world. Recently, ALYA’s single, “Hope,” went viral on TikTok with more than a million views. In the press, she’s hailed as a strong presence in the industry.
Embarking on a new chapter, ALYA is excited to share her new holiday album with fans and new listeners. “Christmas albums are awesome because they’re evergreen,” shares ALYA. “They are full of energy, magic, and festive vibes.” Throughout 2024, ALYA focused on completing the project and showcasing her new, evolved sound. No More Lonely Christmas also offers a sneak peek at her upcoming album, to be released in 2025, that will feature her updated style.
There is something for everyone on No More Lonely Christmas. ALYA’s versatility ensures that every listener finds a song for them, whether it be rock, jazz, or pop-inspired. “My music is designed to be inclusive,” shares ALYA. “I wanted to create something that you could turn on during a gathering and everyone would love—an album that makes you feel good. This album wasn’t made to highlight my singing ability. It’s made to make you feel good as a listener, not showcase me as a singer.”
The album consists of three traditional Christmas songs and multiple original tracks. One track, “Silent Night,” features the world-renowned Eric Clapton making a rare appearance on a holiday album. Another, “I’ll Be Home For Christmas - feat. Indiara Sfair,” showcases the breathtaking harmonica skills of the Brazilian musician.
The upbeat titular single, “No More Lonely Christmas” highlights the feeling of the entire album: a cozy, welcoming sound that wraps you up and makes you feel surrounded by love during a season of joy. This fun, fresh seasonal single joins the ranks of Mariah Carey’s classic hit, “All I Want for Christmas Is You” (one of ALYA’s favorites).
ALYA finds joy in spreading her music and kindness. This holiday season, she has visited shelters for mothers with children and celebrated with them through musical performances and gift giving. “The holidays are about getting together, but some people don’t have the opportunity to get together with the people they love. I wanted to create an album that’s welcoming and cozy. The main message of my art is to be very welcome and inviting. Turn on the music and join us.”
Through the rush of the holiday season, ALYA wants listeners to slow down and savor the moment. “The holiday season isn’t for shopping and stress. It’s a time to get together and share the love and do something good. Check in on someone. Remember to be kind.”
Make sure to stay connected to ALYA on all platforms for new music, videos, and social posts.
“We wanted to make a record closer to the dancefloor than recent ones. But the primary motivation was that we wanted to make our best album. If you’re not aiming for that then there is no point.”
