Louisiana native Colin Allured began his music career with his dad, whom he begged to teach him guitar. Later he studied at Loyola University and is reminded of times walking in the French Quarter with his father, shopping at Tower records to replace music that they lost in a house fire a few years prior, and listening to all the street musicans, second lines, and jazz guitarists. After graduating from UNCSA in 2001, Colin has dutifully pursued a music career, working as a teacher before ultimately breaking out on his own as a musician. Colin volunteers playing hours for a non-profit grant funded organization called Arts for Life that brings music to kids with cancer going through chemotherapy at the hospital. Colin enjoys his pursuit of the arts and is currently expanding his knowledge of Indian and African music. His goal is "to make the world better with music." Colin Allured.
