Alison Hinds (born 1 June 1970) is a Bajan soca artist based in the Caribbean island of Barbados.
She is one of the most popular soca singers in the world and has officially been given the nickname the "Queen of Soca". She has produced many popular songs that top charts even in countries which do not widely listen to soca.
Early life
Alison Hinds was born in London, England. At the age of eleven Hinds' mother and father separated, after which Hinds and her mother moved back to their hometown in Barbados, where she continued to live until today. In 1986, Alison Hinds joined the soca band Square One. At first this band performed mostly in bars and clubs, but later they became a top Soca band, bringing soca to a new level. Alison produced her first hit in the year 1996, "Ragamuffin". That song made her win road march of that year during the Barbados' Crop Over Festival. The following year she repeated road march and also won The Party Monarch with another hit "Twister". Alison was the first woman to ever win these titles in Barbados. This led to Hinds' role as the lead singer in the band. Next, Square One created an album called "Full Bloom". This album took over the Caribbean. It included the song "Faluma", which was the top song in the Caribbean for the period of 1999-2000. It topped the charts of Guatemala for 49 weeks. It was during this period that Hinds' popularity grew. Square One continued to produce hits until 2004 when it broke up - partly due to Hinds' departure. Alison Hinds is known as the undisputed Queen of Soca.
Today
