This Road Goes Everywhere is the debut studio album recorded by Canadian country signer Alee, released independently under the imprint Gotta Be Alee on July 18, 2013.[1] The record produced four singles, two of which charted at Canadian country radio. "Don't Say You Love Me" peaked at number 25 on the Canada Country chart, a rare accomplishment for an independent artist.[2] The album was nominated for Album of the Year at the 2013 Alberta Country Music Association (ACMA) awards.[3]

Background[edit]

Alee met Dave Temple and Johnny "Six Pack" Gasparic "a few years" before the album was released and began recording music.[2] Gasparic was later brought on as the record's producer. All of the songs were written solely by Alee, except for one track co-written by Emma-Lee and Karen Kosowski.[4] The album's title and pending release was announced in May 2013.[2]

Singles[edit]

Alee's debut single, "Real", was released February 1, 2012.[5] "What're We Waitin' For?" was released as the follow-up on August 27, 2012.[6] A third single, "Don't Say You Love Me" was released January 8, 2013.[7] This was her first single to impact the Canada Country chart and her first to hit the top 25.[8][2] It was also named the "fastest moving indie country single" of 2013.[9] "Crazy" was released July 1, 2013 as the album's fourth and final single.[10] It reached 32 on the Canada Country chart.[8]
