EP 345 - Country Artist Jay Allen: An Advocate for Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness and New Music

Growing up near Cedar Falls, Iowa, Jay Allen developed a deep passion for music, influenced by his father’s rock concerts and his mother’s heartfelt country tunes during long car rides. After moving to Nashville in 2013, Jay’s dedication to country music led him to sign a publishing deal in 2014 and secure an artist deal two years later.

 

While Jay’s career was already climbing upward, it was his 2018 hit single, “Blank Stares,” that propelled him into the national spotlight. A powerful tribute to his mother, who battled early-onset Alzheimer’s disease, became a viral sensation, with over 500 million views on Facebook. 

 

His commitment to raising awareness for the Alzheimer’s Association has been unwavering, and the song has gone on to raise over $100 million dollars to help fight the disease.

 

Then it was Jay Allen’s appearance on Season 22 of The Voice that showcased his exceptional talent, earning chair turns from both Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani. This pivotal moment further propelled his career and solidified his position as a rising star in the music industry.

 

With new hit singles out now, let’s welcome country recording artist and an advocate for Alzheimer’s Disease, the voice himself, Jay Allen to the show!
