Byland is the moniker and last name of Seattle based, Albuquerque raised, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Alie Renee. Alie's cinematic, indie-rock sound is grounded by vocally vulnerable moments that will move you to lean in. The acclaimed project has received recognition from outlets like KEXP, Under The Radar, American Songwriter, Flood Magazine, and others.Byland's latest studio record, "Heavy For A While", is both timeless and "a little weird" and makes room for her intriguing and often offbeat arrangements - released on Mother West in March of 2024. The record was co-written with her partner and primary collaborator, Jacob John. A Grammy award winning team brought it to life, including production by Nathan Yaccino (Matt Cameron, Pearl Jam, Norah Jones), mixing by Brandon Bell (Brandi Carlile, Joni Mitchell, Dolly Parton), and mastering by Pete Lyman (Brandi Carlile, Jason Isbell, Chris Stapleton). Notable contributors alongside Alie include a lineup of powerful females - Jessica Dobson (Deep Sea Diver), Meagan Grandall (Lemolo), and Abby Gundersen. In support of the record, Alie, along with her four-piece band of seasoned musicians, toured the West and East Coasts."The passion for performing was palpable. Byland manages to prove you can have both emotionally vulnerable lyrics that sneak up on you like a gut punch and a lively performance that is brimming with fun. The beautiful blend is only enhanced by Alie Renee's amazing vocal range, which is even better live than on the album."- Sara Giza, Willamette Week
