Allen Stone Gushes Over His 'Brown Eyed Lover' & Announces Fall Tour


The life of a working musician often comes with many perks, as well as sacrifices. There seems to be a never-ending struggle between one’s personal life and the demands of the road, often leaving one or the other to suffer. Singer/songwriter Allen Stone recognizes that living out your artistic dreams can take its toll on relationships, and he strives to strike a balance. On his latest single “Brown Eyed Lover” he sings the praises of his soon-to-be wife though he worries that his busy lifestyle may put a strain on the relationship.

Over a soulful groove, his tone is full of sincere emotion as he sings, “And all my friends adore her / She reminds me of my mother / She wonders how my day went / And don't care about my paychecks / Well, I don't wanna keep my baby waiting.” Though he’s obviously smitten, he still struggles with both logic and insecurity asking, “What if she finds a man who's got so much more time for her than me on his hands? / That don't make sense / Why would she wait so long just to run away?” The self-proclaimed “hippie with soul” has perfectly articulated the conflict felt by many artists, highlighting his knack for painting poignant and passionate pictures, lyrically and vocally.

According to Stone, “I am a slave to the road, constantly in a different city, always on the other side of town, never in the same bed for more than a night. It seemed as though I chose a lifestyle that wasn’t lending itself to be shared with a partner. That was until I met my soon to be wife.” His sweet and inspiring ode to his fiancé, also denotes the importance of finding a partner who shares your vision and whose love is pure. Both elements are golden, whether you come home every night at 6 p.m. on the dot or live life out of a suitcase. We’re rooting for Allen and “Tazzy” and looking forward to more tunes inspired by their love.
