Biography

"I guess you could say my path to becoming a musician wasn't the most traditional or expected, but that's what makes my story unique. I went to college, started a family, had a strong 15 year career in the insurance business, was a police officer for 8 years and have finally found myself in the music industry."

Since the age of 5, Allan has been singing. Allan grew up listening to all forms of music, from Garth Brooks to AC/DC, from Tim McGraw to Van Halen, and everything in between. Even during the early formative years of his learning about music, Allan was not afraid to step up as a performer. "One fall day, when I was in the second grade, for show-and-tell, I wrote the lyrics down to "Happy Birthday, Baby," by Ronnie Milsap. I showed the class I could write these lyrics down, and then I sang the song a cappella. It wasn't a big deal to me, but to others it seemed like such a big deal. Even to this day, I remember that day. I remember the response of my friends and teacher. It’s just something I do. Even to this day, it’s just something I do."

Allan has toured the United States for many years performing shows, major events and has opened for numerous national touring artists. Those experiences have been lived to the fullest, and now he is looking forward to what’s to come. "I'm not much on talking about the past. I would rather talk about the future. I have learned so much from the past, and I've learned many lessons. I have so much respect for the people in my life and the musicians I have performed with, but the future is where we are headed."

Over the years, Allan has performed with Eric Church, Luke Bryan, The Band Perry, Justin Moore, Randy Houser, living-legend Randy Travis, and one of the true icons of country music, George Jones. "Working with George Jones on his final tour, before he passed, is a moment in my life I will never forget. We all have "choices" in this world. Watching him sing that song live, watching him perform that song just days before he passed, is something I will never forget. Songs have such deep meanings, and lyrics that touch people’s hearts. I have been touched by the music of past legends and current artists, and I look forward to reaching out to people with my own music and my own voice…to touch their lives." Allan has also been on tour with The Lost Trailers, Gretchen Wilson, Florida Georgia Line, Lee Brice, Dustin Lynch, Joe Nichols, Joe Diffie, Kellie Pickler, Phil Vassar, Bucky Covington, Confederate Railroad, Swon Bros, Danielle Bradberry, Jared Blake, Buddy Jewel, Josh Kelly, Easton Corbin, Matt Stillwell, Bomshel, Cristian Kain, Crossin Dixon, Gloriana, Pat Green, Jamey Johnson, Jeff Bates, John Conlee, Josh Gracin, Julianne Hough, Neal Mccoy, Sarah Buxton, Steel Magnolia, The Wreckers, The Trailor Choir, Bret Eldridge, Chris Young, Leann Rimes, James Otto, Trent Tomlinson, Chuck Wicks, Jason Michael Carrol, Trent Willmon, Trick Pony, Ty Herndon, Keith Anderson, Chris Cagle, Billy Currington, Aaron Tippin, Edens Edge, Heidi Newfield and Craig Morgan.

He is a down to earth person and someone that fits as the leader of my team."
