Set You Free

Gary Allans SET YOU FREE is a perfectly named, well-conceived album that embodies his own evolution toward personal, creative freedom. The album, sequenced with a storyline in which a man breaks the restraints of a failed relationship and conquers the loneliness of it's aftermath, is the result of Allans own journey as a man and as an artist. SET YOU FREE is at once familiar and enlightening. Fans who have followed Allan throughout his 17-year recording career will recognize the dark crevasses in the project the gnarled anger of "Bones," the honest self-examination of "It Aint the Whiskey," the sinister self-abuse of "Sand in My Soul."
