On the heels of his third career No. 1 and recent GRAMMY® & ACM Award nominations, multi-platinum recording artist and songwriter Jimmie Allen’s new single ‘Down Home’ is available now via Stoney Creek Records/BBR Music Group. ‘Down Home’ is the lead single from Allen’s forthcoming third album.
Co-written by Allen, Cameron Bedell, Rian Ball & Tate Howell, ‘Down Home’ takes shape as a letter to his late father James – who passed away in 2019 – and showcases their special, enduring connection. A well-known family man, Allen continues to cite his father as one of the most important people and a guiding force in his own life and roles as husband, father, and son.
“‘Down Home’ is probably one of the most special songs I’ve ever written. I wrote it about my father – kind of like, hopefully he’s in heaven and looking down on everything I’m doing and hope he’d be proud of me. I wrote it with my friends [Tate] Howell, [Rian] Ball and [Cameron] Bedell,” Allen shares. “It’s a song that’s actually helped me a lot because in the midst of missing my father, I think about him seeing everything I’ve got going on and it’s like… even though he’s gone, he’s always with me. I hope this song finds its place in the world and this song helps people that have lost not only a father, or a parent, or a loved one just like the song has helped me.”
