Alissa Moreno Has Her Emotions Written All Over In "Every Day"

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Wednesday, June 15, 2011

The pop-country stylist Alissa Moreno released the music video for her penned "Every Day." The track is the chart-topping hit for Rascal Flatts. It went to No.2 on the country charts and was nominated for a Grammy, as well as getting over half a million hits on Youtube. The video was directed by Quattro, and Moreno has her emotions written all over her in "Every Day."
Born on a Navajo Indian reservation in New Mexico, she later moved to Hawaii where her jazz musician grandfather encouraged her to study music profusely, leading her to be an extraordinary musician. Over the following years, she moved to Los Angeles and and launched her career both as a vocalist and a composer of pop and rock songs. She released her debut album, "In Your Wake" in 2008 on her own Pi Records label. The first single, "Far From Here," is the theme to Lifetime's "Army Wives." She also co-wrote and helped perform the theme to ABC's sitcom "Hope and Faith," and among many others TV shows.
Talking about the story behind writing "Every Day," Moreno said "We were at a songwriting expo in Colorado, and Jeffrey Steele wanted to get together before his sound check. They had a beautiful piano, and I had had that music for a long time, but was not clear where to go with it. When I played him the hook, he said, 'I know exactly what to do with that. I've been thinking about this chorus for a long time.' From that point it was under an hour and we were off to the races with it."
Moreno is an "old hand" around the Expo, having performed at the event seven of our ten years! She is a renown piano and vocal talent, having worked on the set of "Hollywoodland" (Focus Features 2006) as vocal coach to Ben Affleck. She also is an actress, appearing in commercials, indie films, and creating and starring in Los Angeles Independent Film Festival short film "Superchicks." Moreno has been a busy gal, and she currently divides her time between the West Coast(Los Angeles) and in Music City(Nashville), keeping one foot in pop and one in country music.
