Allie Cuva, who performs under the moniker allie, is a songwriter, producer, multi-instrumentalist, performer and mix engineer currently based in New York City. She began playing and writing music at the age of twelve in her hometown of Detroit, Michigan and at the age of eighteen moved to Nashville where she spent several years honing her musical skills and developing her artistic and spiritual identity, coming out as transgender in 2020. Allie Cuva went on to tour extensively as the drummer for English singer-songwriter Cavetown before birthing her first ever solo musical project, allie, with a 2021 debut LP Maybe Next Time garnering support from Brooklyn Vegan, Atwood Magazine, Our Culture Magazine and more. The LP was followed up by a 7-inch included on Saddle Creek's Document Series with "cast iron," produced by Ryan Hemsworth (Tinashe, Mitski) under the moniker Quarter-Life Crisis which FLOOD Magazine called "an affecting rumination on connection." In 2022, while seeking larger arts and queer communities, Cuva relocated to New York City, honing her live set in Brooklyn’s active indie-scene and releasing 2024’s rich, vibrant indie album Every Dog, as well as new 2025 singles “DND” and “Party Foul” featuring Tall GFs. allie continues to queer and deepen indie music from a trans, queer, leftist lens with tons of new self-produced music on the way. She will be on tour supporting esteemed tender-punk pioneers Illuminati Hotties in the US this June, 2025 and will continue to release music throughout this year.
