Gary Allan‘s latest album, Ruthless, on is being released on vinyl beginning Oct. 22. Upon its release in June, the album earned Allan his 9th Top Ten album over his 25-year career.

The 13-track project will be available in pearlized purple, peacock green, and standard black.

“I grew up listening to my dad’s vinyl records and then started my own collection. There is just something different about the sound from a vinyl LP,” said Allan. “When the album starts spinning and you drop the needle, it is an experience. I’m excited my fans will now be able to have that experience with some of my music.”

The album was produced by Allan along with veteran producers Mark Wright, Tony Brown, Greg Droman and Jay Joyce, and features collaborations with some of Nashville’s top songwriters including Hillary Lindsey, Busbee, Shane McAnally, Nicolle Galyon, Ross Ellis, Ryan Hurd, Jim Beavers, Blair Daly, The Warren Brothers and more.

Gary Allan is currently on “The Ruthless Tour: 25 Years The Hard Way,” through the end of 2021, with upcoming stops in Dallas, Tucson, Kansas City, Detroit, Tulsa and more.
