Alison Faith Levy, formerly "Sippy Alison" from the beloved San Francisco band The Sippy Cups, and the songwriter behind such Sippy faves as Magic Toast, Move Your Pants, One Day Soon, and The Jellyfish, is a children's musician with a warm, engaging and fun set of songs to get everyone dancing and singing!
After spending five years criss-crossing the country with the psychedelic rock n' roll circus for kids that was The Sippy Cups, performing in such venues such as Symphony Space in NYC, Lollapalooza, House of Blues, Central Park Summerstage and Austin City Limits, Alison Faith Levy took a break from performing for children and found success with her "grown-up" Americana band, McCabe & Mrs. Miller, with songwriting partner Victor Krummenacher (of Camper Van Beethoven). They performed with the likes of Rosanne Cash, Cracker, and Built to Spill, and released an acclaimed album "Time for Leaving." Alison returns to making music for children with a renewed enthusiasm, a brand new set of original songs, and a high-energy live set that is full of participation from kids and grown-ups alike.
She is currently recording her debut album for kids, "World of Wonder", with producer/pop wunderkind Allen Clapp of The Orange Peels, to be released in early 2012.
