From a young age, Alan knew he wanted to play music. It started with cover bands in 8th grade, then party bands in college, and eventually entertaining patrons across the honky-tonks of Nashville's Lower Broadway. By the late 10s, he'd honed his chops as a showman. After posting early singles Climate Change and New Normal online, Alan's career began to take off. The foundation of his life as a recording artist was an open dialogue with the fanbase he found on TikTok. He'd share parts of his own life, and he heard what resonated with listeners. Soon, he'd amassed more than 750 million streams and more than 18 million followers across social media.
