Interested in country music from a young age, Allan was influenced by the stars of the Bakersfield scene, above all Buck Owens and Merle Haggard.
At age twenty, Allan founded his own band. In 1996, Allan signed a record contract with Decca Records, who released his first album. That album, Used Heart For Sale, included Allan's first Billboard Top 20 hit, "Her Man." In 2001, Allan's album Alright Guy contained his very first Billboard #1, "Man to Man."
From Wikipedia:Gary Allan Herzberg (born December 5, 1967) is an American country music artist, known professionally as Gary Allan.
Signed to Decca Records in 1996, Allan made his debut on the United States country music scene with the release of his single "Her Man", the lead-off to his gold-certified debut album Used Heart for Sale, which was released in 1996 on Decca Records. A second album, It Would Be You, followed in 1998 on Decca. Allan's third album, Smoke Rings in the Dark, was his first album for MCA Nashville (to which he has been signed ever since) and the first platinum album of his career. Its successors, Alright Guy (2001) and See If I Care (2003), were all certified platinum as well, while 2005's Tough All Over and 2007's Greatest Hits were both certified gold. A seventh studio album, Living Hard, was released later in 2007.
Overall, Allan's seven studio albums and Greatest Hits package have produced twenty-four singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including three that reached Number One: "Man to Man" and "Tough Little Boys" in 2003, and "Nothing On but the Radio" in 2004. Seven more of his singles have reached the Top Ten on this chart as well: "Her Man", "It Would Be You", "Right Where I Need to Be", "The One", "Best I Ever Had" (a cover of a Vertical Horizon song), "Life Ain't Always Beautiful", and "Watching Airplanes". Allan's latest album, Get Off on the Pain, was released on March 9, 2010.
