Allison Hinds (born 1 June 1970) is a British female soca artist based in the Caribbean island of Barbados.

She is one of the most popular soca singers in the world and has unofficially been given the nickname the "Queen of Soca". She has produced many popular songs that top charts even in countries which do not widely listen to soca.

Currently Allison Hinds lives with her family, husband Edward Walcott and daughter Saharan (born May 4th, 2004), on a privately owned horse farm, which her husband manages, in Barbados. She has her own band, "The Allison Hinds Show". This band was formed in 2005 when Hinds returned to the soca scene with the hit song "Roll It Gyal" which is an anthem for young women and encourages them to have pride in themselves. In 2006 the song was still popular throughout the region. Hinds is the main singer and most of the members of the band are young dancers and musicians. She also produced a song called "Love Affair". Since she returned to music she has recorded a collaboration with Machel Montano for the the remix of "Roll It Gyal".
