<p><em>Original, complex, innovative, unconventional</em>…In fact, <strong>Witty Alley’s music is nothing like that</strong>, but simply a subtil melt <em><strong>vintage rock roots</strong></em> and <em><strong>modern metal sounds</strong></em>, all mixed in a <strong>progressive cocktail</strong>, without calculation or show off.</p>

<p>Guided by a boundless energy and a palpable sincerity , <strong><em>the audience takes a journey through the tracks</em></strong>, discovering with each one a new side to the music. Each song telling its own story, it draws its atmosphere by a <strong>constant evolution</strong>, developped by a large range of arrangements. From <em>powerful grooves to high flying climats, orchestrals parts to jazzy question-and-answer solos</em>, evolutive rock parts and catchy vocal melodies are combined to create unique songs, through epic to nightmarish parts!</p>

<p>With <em><strong>many various influences</strong></em> and the will to transcend genres, <strong>Witty Alley is looking for emotion</strong>, throughout both their songwriting and the live experience, where the public observe a succession of moods, though they are never left behind...</p>
<p>Witty Alley released its first EP “<strong>Some Kind of Wit</strong>” in 2011, only available by postal orders or during live shows, or on streaming on all major plateforms: Itunes, Deezer, Spotify...</p>

<p>Today, after <em>numerous line up changes</em> and a <em>hard-working period of songwriting and recording</em>, we're about to release our first album, <strong>a major step</strong> for any band and particularly for <strong>Witty Alley</strong> : <br />
The songs of this album represent <strong>the true identity we were searching to create</strong>, as a band, much more homogeneous than on our first EP, but still showing that <strong>diversity of genre</strong> which we are attached.</p>

<p>We dug deeper into the <strong>progressive way </strong>and the <strong>metal side</strong> of our music is more present too, the main thematic of the album exploring <strong><em>dark and peculiar aspects of things</em>...</strong></p>

<p>We are convinced that we achieved <strong>something really special</strong> with the making of this record, that's why we are determined to give it the <strong>best production possible</strong>. We spent all our money and resources in the recording of the tracks and a part of the making of the artwork. Now, it still needs to be <em><strong>mixed, mastered, pressed and finally released!</strong></em></p>
<p>That's why <strong>we need you!!!</strong> We need your help to <em><strong>finalise the production process</strong></em> :</p>
