Brad Allen has often picked up his guitar to work through whatever he may be going through in life.

As a firefighter in the Birmingham metro area and a regular on the local club and festival music circuit, Allen can always find something that needs to be worked out.

Now he has worked out enough to share with others.

“I want the world to hear this music that’s been placed in my heart and soul,” Allen said.

He has released “Start Again,” a new song from an upcoming album.

“Those songs just kind of spoke to me initially and now I’m just ready for it do to the same for others,” Allen said.

You can listen to the song on YouTube or at Allen’s website, BeRealAboutDestiny.com. It can also be streamed or downloaded on most music sites, including Spotify.
