Alyssa Payne is a singer, dancer, actress, and lyricist/composer from Atlanta, Georgia. Her musical compositions are a joyous celebration of the human experience, painted with melodies that range from whimsical to soul-stirring. She recently moved up to NYC in August to be apart of the BMI Lehman Engel Musical Theatre Writing Workshop. She is excited to be making her return to 54 Below after having such a wonderful experience as a Write Out Loud finalist back in September. She gives all thanks to God, friends and family for pushing her to be where she is today.
