From chart-topping broadcaster and bestselling novelist to breakout recording artist, AC Scott (Alison Craig) releases her deeply personal debut album ‘Out Of The Blue’ via Right Track/Universal Distribution.
Written in the quiet of night at her late father’s desk, ‘Out Of The Blue’ is a powerful collection of songs that shimmer with survival, self-rediscovery, and hard-won joy. Across 14 tracks that range from haunting piano ballads and cinematic torch songs to swaggering rock and funk-infused grooves, AC Scott delivers an album that feels both intimately vulnerable and boldly anthemic.
From the introspective ‘Sometimes’ and the soaring ‘15 Minutes of Fame’ to the defiant lead single ‘Never Too Late’, the record captures an artist who has lived many lives and is finally stepping into the one she was always meant for. Blending her Scottish roots with influences from Judie Tzuke, Julia Fordham, and Marianne Faithfull, AC Scott’s warm, expressive voice anchors a sound that is eclectic, emotional, and utterly authentic.
A former Sony Award-winning radio host, TV presenter (The One Show), and bestselling author, AC Scott’s life took a dramatic turn when a rare degenerative lung condition (LAM) forced her to leave broadcasting. What began as a private creative outlet during recovery has now blossomed into a remarkable late-blooming music career. After writing hundreds of songs, crossing the Atlantic by ship (as she is unable to fly) to record in Los Angeles, and collaborating with top industry talents, she has created an album that celebrates resilience and second acts.
“Sometimes life knocks you for six,” says AC Scott, “but if you can pick yourself up and follow your heart, you just don’t know what’s possible. This album has given me my life back.”
‘Out Of The Blue’ is available now on all major streaming platforms.
