Gary Allan’s new CD Living Hard is raw and emotional. It’s freight-train-to-nowhere lonely. It’s hard-rockin’, no-apologies country music that has traded in its twang for a gravelly growl millions of fans recognize as the voice of Gary Allan. “I think the fans are gonna feel that this record is different,” he says, “but the most important thing is that what I do is authentic. I’ve never pushed for a certain image. I’ve just always done my own thing.”
This time around, Allan says, that includes letting listeners ride along through his personal landscape over the past year. “The record has taken about a year to make,” he says, “and I think the whole thing reflects change. I think every record sort of reflects where I’m at, and I’ve made a ton of changes this year, just mentally and in how I’m approaching everything. “Oh,” he adds with a grin, “and I think it’s much more rockin’ than anything I’ve done.”
“Gary Allan could easily be the next John Cougar, if not the next Boss.”
—- Los Angeles Times
“For the past decade, Gary Allan (has) turned out hard-rocking country that sidestepped Nashville cliches.”
—- Rolling Stone
“His version of country-rock is a little bit rougher than the usual Nashville hybrid. He’s got a marvelous, half-weathered voice, and he‚Äôs not afraid to croak the lyrics or snarl them.”
—- New York Times Don’t miss Gary Allan Living Hard Night at participating nightclubs across the country.
