Grey's Anatomy

Wasn't a song featured in GA too? I think I saw an ad for it on her MySpace.-- Stacey _{talk to me} 13:11, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I amm sooo saad

Some parts of her lyrics were hard to decipher, so I kept searching. I found this two years old information on this reputable website.

http://www.truthaboutscientology.com/stats/by-name/a/alison-sudol.html.

It must be true because her management didn’t do any thing. This hermetic groups doesn’t let much info out. This lessons she took show that she is a long term member

New Release

I removed the line about a new album due for release in the UK in June 2008. The reference given was for the album that was already released a year ago. A Fine Frenzy's website did not indicate any new album was available as of July 2008. Redhookesb (talk) 06:00, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Year of birth

There have been confusions about Alison Sudol's year of birth, not only here but also in the official AFF wiki. I'm going to correct this to 1984, and here are my sources:

In a Myspace bulletin, which was published yesterday, she thanks everybody for their birthday wishes and says she is "excited about what 24 will bring".
In this interview/chat, she says she is 23 ("Wie alt bist du? - 23"). That was on January 23rd 2008.
Probably the main reason for all the confusions was her biography on her official site, saying: "A Fine Frenzy is the music of 22 year-old Alison Sudol". However, this text has been on the site since at least July 16th 2007. This means she had her 23rd birthday in 2007, so she was born in 1984. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Robb1989 (talk • contribs) 10:57, 25 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rename?

There is no justification for this article's title. Throughout the article she is referred to as Sudol.

JimCubb (talk) 18:46, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I should also add- there is a lot of confusion about A Fine Frenzy being Alison Sudol's stage name. She clarified this in an interview- A Fine Frenzy is the name of the "music" which she and her band created. It's actually incorrect to call her person "A Fine Frenzy", as she says it's not her name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.236.170.112 (talk) 08:04, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

sales stats?

Can we get an estimate of total albums sold on here? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skysong263 (talk • contribs) 19:39, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Omar Velasco

Alison recently tweeted this link,

http://www.vimeo.com/24583670

showing her with a collaborator, Omar Velasco . I have seen other videos with him. Can we somehow get some more information on here about the people she performs with? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skysong263 (talk • contribs) 02:06, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

sales

Can someone explain why she has 1.6 million twitter followers, if she's only sold 300,000 albums? That doesn't make sense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skysong263 (talk • contribs) 05:12, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Template for discussion

I would like to point out that the "A Fine Frenzy" navigation box template (at the bottom of the article) is currently up for discussion/deletion. I invite contributors to participate in the discussion and voice their opinion either way. See discussion here. --Another Believer _(Talk) 15:00, 16 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Written like an advertisement?

What exactly makes this article any more like an advertisement, compared to many other artist pages? It's a genuine question, I'd like to know your points of view so I can attempt to improve it. --Vittau (talk) 23:37, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sales of her

Hi Im new on Wikipedia. But id like to contribute as good as I can. Cause there were some question about her total album sales. I tried to look it up: Here is what I found: https://itunes.apple.com/dz/podcast/alison-sudol-fine-frenzy-meet/id571727865

http://www.podcast.de/podcast/199505/

This sources tell that she has sold 650k albums !Do you think we should add this ?--ACDC1992 (talk) 20:46, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've added this to the lead, using the iTunes source. Thanks for the suggestion! — Huntster (t @ c) 04:23, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actress?

This article makes no mention that Ms. Sudol also acts so perhaps this is a new career avenue for her: http://www.thewrap.com/usa-network-a-fine-frenzy-dig-homeland-heroes/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.168.152.76 (talk) 17:13, 27 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

RfC for article name change

Consensus is to have two articles, one for the musical artist and one for the person (in non-musical endeavors)

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Since the last album's release in 2012, she has predominantly been using her name (Alison Sudol) in various endeavors. In addition to her new involvement in acting, fashion/style magazines and humanitarian/charity work use her name rather than musical moniker. It may be time to move the article to the current redirect Alison Sudol and redirect AFF to that article.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(talk) 04:25, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

hi - i think this is how i leave a comment? :-)

In numerous interviews recently Alison has talked about moving on from A Fine Frenzy and concentrating on acting and other musical projects. alongside her humanitarian and charitable work there is obviously more to Alison than A Fine Frenzy and as such she deserves to have a page dedicated to these other parts of her career under her personal name. thanks :-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dannyduncombe (talk • contribs) 04:38, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Or, should there be separate articles for Alison Sudol and A Fine Frenzy? There are many occurrences in which members of musical groups have their own articles. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 13:12, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Is AFF a group? This article is written like it is a person and solo artist with a stage name, which was the WP:COMMONNAME for the artist. Band personnel do not seem to be consistent to justify "band name" given the amount of citations referring to AFF as a person.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(talk) 14:51, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Just seems AAF content could have an article and Sudol could have an article, but maybe that goes against precedent. I don't see anything wrong with having an article dedicated to an individual's stage presence. It might effectively separate Sudol's musical work from her other projects. If having separate articles is not preferred, I would say AAF should be redirected to an article about Sudol. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 04:26, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting RfC. It looks like you have many options: 1) move the current article to her given name and discuss the band within the bio 2) move the current article to her given name and split the band out into a new article 3) do nothing. Viriditas (talk) 04:12, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

hi everyone - it feels like there should be separate articles. A Fine Frenzy is a band project predominantly led by Alison Sudol, with a specific name, albums released, tours, music in movies etc and, in the interests of people researching the topic on wikipedia, should have its own page but Alison Sudol is an individual who is an actress, author and writer outside of any musical endeavors - to list her acting credits under A Fine Frenzy is wrong as she doesnt 'act' as A Fine Frenzy. A Fine Frenzy is not Alison Sudol. I'm pretty new here - how does this get resolved? Thanks for all your input :-) added by Dannyduncombe (talk • contribs) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.185.104.202 (talk) 17:52, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I generally agree with this comment re: separation of Sudol vs. AFF. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:00, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I will be closing this tomorrow evening to work on the split of this article rather than a rename (per consensus). If anyone has any other comments please contribute.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(talk) 18:48, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this split as well. Alison Sudol has not been active as A Fine Frenzy for several years and has been using her own name since. The A Fine Frenzy official Facebook account now reads "Alison Sudol," which offers evidence of this change. This page also does not discuss Sudol's acting work, which has been a prominent part of her career recently. ^[1]--☾kateeweimer☽ ☏(talk) 11:52, 19 March 2015 (PST)
