Gary Allan arrives in stores with his new album, Set You Free, next Tuesday (January 22nd), and he tells us the songs are more upbeat than his previous projects contained. “I think it’s a lot lighter. It’s kind of a double-edge sword for me, because I don’t like the happy songs,” says Gary. “And [then comes] ‘Every Storm Runs Out of Rain,’ so I think that is more what this album is all about is me coming up for air, and I’m in a lot better spot.”
Gary’s latest single, “Every Storm (Runs Out of Rain),” is closing in on the top spot on the country charts.
- Gary is scheduled to perform his single next Wednesday (January 23rd) on NBC’s Tonight Show With Jay Leno (11:35p ET) and NBC’s Late Night With Jimmy Fallon on February 11th (12:35a ET).
- You can also catch Gary on GAC Daily Countdown all next week as well as upcoming episodes of CMT Insider, CMT’s Top 20, GAC’s Top 20 and Headline Country and The Travel Channel’s Trip Flip.

“I think it’s a lot lighter. It’s kind of a double-edge sword for me, because I don’t like the happy songs. Nobody gives a Sh [BEEP] if you’re happy. I want the cutting ones that make you like, I am drawn to those anyway, plus I’ve been through a lot, so I think everybody was like looking at it like, ‘Wow- he’s like really spinning out. And [then comes] ‘Every Storm Runs Out of Rain,’ so I think that is more what this album is all about is me coming up for air, and I’m in a lot better spot.”
