Episode 72: Allie Marie Hunter

On this episode of March Forth with Mike Bauman, Mike chats with Allie Marie Hunter!

Hailing from London, England, Allie is a country singer and creative who's been surrounded by music and entertainment since she was a child. Coming from a creative family of actors, musicians, singers and dancers, Allie started performing at a young age.

In the years since her first leading lady role as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, Allie has continued her creative pursuits on multiple fronts. From musical theater, to attending drama school, scripting short films and plays, and even writing a science fiction novel, she's explored multiple avenues over the years.

That said, Allie's love for country music has led her on her current path as an emerging country artist. She's released two singles since 2020 - "Never Beat Again" and "Hair of the Dog" - both of which have accompanying music videos and highlight her storytelling ability and authentic voice. Each single has amassed more than 30,000 streams on Spotify, while the music videos have also done well (57k YouTube views for "Never Beat Again;" 18k YouTube views for "Hair of the Dog"). 

In this episode, Allie talks with me about growing up performing in London with a creative and supportive family, the positive impact and influence of her mother, her love of country music and storytelling, her science fiction novel, working at the renowned FH Block and Ealing Studios in London, and more.

This episode of March Forth with Mike Bauman also features the aforementioned "Hair of the Dog" from Allie Marie Hunter, available where you get your music!
