The micro-version of how Gary Allan got to Nashville is well-known, especially among his loyal fans. The 'It Ain't the Whiskey' singer recently sat down to record his episode of Guitar Center Sessions, where he shared all of the details, including the song his benefactor heard before writing him a check for $12,000. Watch him tell the story in this video, premiering on Taste of Country.

Through the years, Gary Allan has had his share of bus troubles. His new tour bus was dinged up this week in an accident before a show in Birmingham, Ala. The 'It Ain't the Whiskey' singer tweeted a photo of a crunched cargo door while letting fans know everyone was alright.

Gary Allan has ridden a sea of votes into one last face-off in the Country Whuppin'.  It's either a trip to the Hall of Fame, or a loss at the hands of today's challenger.  That would be the hottest duo in country, Florida Georgia Line with 'Stay.'

While hometown boy, Tim Ash had a very respectable showing, it was too much to overcome Gary Allan in the Country Whuppin'.  Gary continues his winning ways into a battle with LoCash Cowboys, with a song they debuted yesterday to rave reviews.

Gary Allan got revenge from last year's Country Whuppin', where Brett Eldredge won.  Gary came back with a 75% victory over Brett and his new single.  Today, Gary faces the Tri-State's own, Tim Ash and his first national single, 'Broke.'

I mentioned on Monday, what a voting powerhouse Kellie Pickler had behind her.  As great as it is, it was no match for the powerhouse that is Gary Allan.  His new tune, "It Ain't The Whiskey" rides a huge win and over 3000 votes into battle against someone who defeated him almost a year ago to the day in the Country Whuppin', Brett Eldredge!

What seemed like the next round of artist vs. artist criticisms was misconstrued and taken out of context, according to one of the parties involved. Gary Allan says his answer to Larry King's question about whether or not Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift are country has been spun in a way he didn't intend.

Alexandra Lee  had a great run for a new artist, but she ran into the voting machine that is Team Pickler!  Kellie Pickler's new tune goes into today's special Monday edition of the Country Whuppin' against country veteran, Gary Allan.

Gary Allan is on the mend after quietly undergoing knee surgery on Monday (July 22). The 'Pieces' singer had the procedure to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee.

This just in: Gary Allan and Sheryl Crow are teaming up to co-headline the 2013 Free and Easy Tour this fall!

Pieces of Gary Allan's heart and soul fly around like swirls of confetti in his new 'Pieces' video. Those pieces are made up of photos, which feature memories and good times in his life.

Two days after 'Set You Free' was released in January, Gary Allan began thinking about his next album. He tells Taste of Country that he was at an event with songwriter Hillary Lindsey -- whose credits include 'Every Storm (Runs Out of Rain)' and 'Two Black Cadillacs' -- during release week, and he tried to corner her to write. She laughed and reminded him that his last project was just days old.
