Aimee is the explosive, outspoken voice behind modern rock monsters "Revolution" and "If It Feels Right", as well as a contributor to the Grammy-nominated "Hairspray" soundtrack (the song "Cooties") and multiple best selling, critically acclaimed artists. On this record, she unveils a more serene side of her personality, radiating her sense of home in the California sunshine. Eleven introspective, largely acoustic tracks conjuring the simple bliss of a drive down to the Pacific.

"This is a big change for Aimee Allen from her last album. She tones it down considerably here. Her songwriting is fantastic as exhibited in the Ron Paul Anthem, Cooties, and other past works of hers. Normally I would n't love an album as laid back as this one, but her well written songs and her strong unique voice used with such passion win me over on this one. There are 2 songs that don't make it for me and 9 that do. Of those 9 I think tracks 3,4,5,7, and 11 are great. After the final track "God Talks" ends I found myself saying 'I believe you Aimee, and wow! Most of the songs are about coping and carrying on after a love relationship breaks up. I think Aimee found her strength and I know she has porvided me "With a Little Happiness" via this great album. Check this artist out. I think her potential in the future is limitless."
A Little Happiness makes me MUCH HAPPY!

"I'm so happy to be able to have a CD with the songs I heard Aimee sing at the Concert for the Republic and Rally for the Republic in Minneapolis last fall.
I love these songs very much, Aimee is such a wonderful artist and a beautiful woman. This CD is HIGHLY recommended!"
LOVE THIS ALBUM!!!!!

"This is very different than her first (unreleased) album but I have to say, I LOVE this record. I'd like to list my favorite tracks but I really can't decide. But "Save Me" "Calling The Maker" "Santeria" "Silence is Violence" and "God Talks to Me" are def at the top. The amazon bonus song is a re-make of her song Called "Wake Up" but this new version is so good it should have made the official tracklist. I dont have many albums where I don't skip tracks... This is one of those albums. Great job Aimee, love the new you."
Reminds me of a female version of Sublime...

"She covers Santeria, but that's not the only reason I think of Sublime. Sublime made albums with very little, if any, filler. This is one of those albums."
Uplifting

"I disagree with the previous listener. I'm not familiar with Aimee's music and just happened upon this cd. I am absolutely buying it because it is, for the most part, very uplifting. It's as if she knows the turmoil some of us have been going through and she is dragging us out of there so we can create our own brighter future as only we can. Aimee- we get you and we love the cd. And now I'm going to go listen to some of your earlier music."
