Jimmie Allen Duets With Tim McGraw, Darius Rucker & More On New EP

Jimmie Allen called upon an array of his artist friends for his new seven-song EP, Bettie James.

Out Friday (July 10), the collaborative project features Allen alongside Nelly, Mickey Guyton, Tim McGraw, Brad Paisley, Darius Rucker, Charley Pride, Tauren Wells, Rita Wilson, The Oak Ridge Boys and Noah Cyrus.

“I am a fan of every artist on this project and humbled to have each one of them be a part of it,” Allen says. “Each artist has touched the life of my dad, my grandmother and me through their music. I’m proud of this body of music and thankful to every writer that helped me create Bettie James.”

Allen co-produced the EP with Ash Bowers. The project’s title was inspired by and named after his late father, James Allen, and late grandmother, Bettie Snead, who passed away in September 2019 and February 2014 respectively.
