On Thursday, September 11th, Singer/Songwriter Dorian Allen will release his EP Running Back to You, in partnership with Raine Magazine. The release event will be held at 1315 Studios located at 15 West 28th Street, from 7:00 pm to 9:30 pm, and will showcase Victoria Scandale’s Spring/Summer 2015 Collection, in celebration of New York Fashion Week.
Dorian Allen, originally from Houston, Texas, now resides in NYC and has been singing since the age of two and writing since the age of thirteen. Dorian was a semifinalist on P. Diddy’s MTV show, “Making His Band” (2009), and is most credited for singing back-up for iconic musicians such as include Philip Bailey, Michael McDonald, Mavis Staples, Ben E. King, and Sam Smith. Dorian was also the winner of the ASCAP Collective Workshop award for his song, “Hook, Line, and Sinker,” in March 2014.
The talented singer/songwriter fuses R&B, Pop, Rock, Folk, and Country in his songs of love, life, hurt, and growth; all things he experienced while creating this record. “I want to be able to stimulate the mind, body, and soul of listeners, ring into their hearts, just as those that I grew to admire did,” says Allen about the new project.“I try to capture that raw emotion in my music where listeners can engage and relate,” he adds.
At the release event, guests will enjoy music listening stations featuring songs from Dorian’s EP, hors d’ouerves, cocktails, gift bags, and an eclectic infusion of music and fashion decor while mingling with fashion influencers, and editors from Raine Magazine. Dorian will do a special 4-song performance to include, “No One Can Love You,” “Bon Voyage,” and the first single of his EP, “Running Back to You”, intermixed with a fashion presentation by Victoria Scandale, who is a new designer to watch, as stated by Raine Magazine.
