Jimmie Allen Reveals Seven-Song ‘Bettie James’ EP Track List
We are so excited about this release!
Jimmie Allen has had chart-topping success all his own, but for his latest project, the rising star called on a few friends to help him. Dubbed the Bettie James EP, Allen enlisted artists including Brad Paisley, Tim McGraw, Mickey Guyton and more to create a seven-song collaborative project.
“I am a fan of every artist on this project and humbled to have each one of them be a part of it,” the Maryland native said of his EP. “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.”

On top of inviting artists close to his heart, the project holds a whole other meaning to Allen. Dubbed Bettie James, the EP is named for his late grandmother and father.
“My dad and grandmom were two completely different people, but both played a huge part in my life,” he shared previously. “Since they died, I have been wanting to leave trails of their legacies throughout my music.”
Bettie James is set for release on July 10.
