Episode 226 - Allegra Hernandez.
Dan Sterenchuk and Tommy Estlund are honored to have as our guest, Allegra Hernandez. Allegra Hernandez is a musician, guitarist, and songwriter from Des Moines, IA. Allegra lets the music speak for itself with intricate dynamics and rich, melodic, guitar on top of heartfelt vocals containing elements of alt-rock, melodic hooks, and splashes of technical skill. They tap into a realm of musical versatility, showcasing many different sides to their songwriting, instrumental composition, and live performance. Strong songwriting and vocals are combined with exceptional guitar playing, big chunky distortion, searing leads, and first-person vignettes. Allegra released their first full-length LP Gift Exchange in November 2022. Allegra plays with bandmates Vimka Nochvay on bass, Aaron Larimer on drums, and is newly joined by Ayla Billick on guitar.
You can find Allegra's music on major streaming platforms and Bandcamp. @allegrahernandezmusic on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook. @allegrarocks777 on Twitter.

Allegra works seasonally with a local non-profit organization, Girls Rock! Des Moines (https://www.girlsrockdsm.org), in the summers as a guitar instructor and band coach. As a non-binary and queer individual, Allegra is passionate about uplifting, supporting, and celebrating LGBTQ+ youth.
