Today, Jimmie Allen has released his brand new single – Down Home – via Stoney Creek Records/BBR. Listen to the track here.
On the heels of his third career No. 1 and current GRAMMY® & ACM Award nominations, multi-platinum recording artist and songwriter Jimmie Allen has released his stunning and sentimental new track ‘Down Home.’ The track 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. It’s a powerful and special songs that is a wonderful, heart-wrenching tribute to his father.
Of the track, Allen shares, “‘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.. 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.”
