Some have alleged that Alicia is from France and others have claimed that she was, "born and raised", in Atlanta. Not true. She has also never been a physical education teacher in Canada, but does have Canadian friends. Alicia is also not related to Lloyd, Beau, or Jeff Bridges; though she enjoys their films (especially Jeff’s acting). Rumors of Alicia's spinning records as a DJ in the Atlanta area are true.

Alicia Bridges was born in Charlotte, North Carolina and grew up in a nearby rural community, the small town of Lawndale, NC. She began to write songs and play guitar at the age of ten years old, after her father Myles Bridges taught Alicia to strum her first chords on his Gibson tenor guitar.

Only twelve years old, Alicia launched her own radio program in Shelby, NC on station WADA. The "Alicia Bridges Show" became a weekly Saturday show on WADA, a popular show in Cleveland County N.C. By thirteen, Alicia was performing weekends and summers with a popular local band in the NC area. The group performed Blues tunes, Jazz, Rock, R&B, Country and Pop hits.

She later hit the road as the lead singer of the Zachary Ridge rock band performing in clubs, bars, and concert halls. Her travels would lead her to Nashville, Tenn. where she met record producer Gary Walker. Soon Gary introduced Alicia to the Southern iconic publishing mogul, the late Bill Lowery of Atlanta Ga. Signing with Bill, Alicia continued to play gigs, make appearances as a solo artist and write songs.

Alicia Bridges and Susan Hutcheson, her partner at the time, wrote "I Love The Nightlife" in 1977. Her album, Alicia Bridges I Love The Nightlife Disco Round, was released in 1978. Immediately Alicia was sought after world wide to perform her disco hit. Her song has retained a life of it's own, featured in popular television shows and movies today.

Alicia currently resides in the Carolinas where she has begun another phase of her musical career. She and her partner continue to write, mix, and now publish a wide variety of musical styles in their Carolina Studio, FDXXcwp. Recently releasing their third digitally mixed album, FauxDiva XX; Alicia Bridges has gained the coveted trifecta in her musical career as a performer, writer, and now publisher of her oh so familiar eclectic blend of talented vocal creativity.
