Biography


Allman grew up in Springville, Utah, and later moved to Pleasant Grove, Utah. As a teenager he used to collect stolen bikes in a barn. [1] He grew up watching his father play in numerous bands as a drummer, originally picking up the drums at age 5.[citation needed]

Allman picked up the guitar at age 14, and started playing in bands at 15. Allman is influenced by bands such as Face to Face, Goldfinger, Thursday, Kenna, Weezer, Jimmy Eat World and The New Transit Direction.[2]

In 2001, Quinn Allman along with Branden Steineckert and Jeph Howard founded The Used. Later Quinn asked Bert McCracken if he was interested in joining the band. The Used's singer, Bert McCracken, describes Quinn Allman as a "truly spiritual and warm" individual.[citation needed]

On February 2, 2015 The Used announced that Quinn would be taking a year long hiatus from the band. Justin Shekoski of Saosin temporarily replaced Quinn on subsequent tours.[3] However, on November 19, 2015, The Used released a statement saying that they were moving forward without Allman as a "result of a mutual understanding".[4] However, former bandmate Branden Steineckert, who had left the band nine years prior, hosted Allman on the final episode of his podcast 801PUNX. In the podcast, Allman claims he was actually not allowed to return to the band and was kicked out.[5] He continues to write, record and produce music, as well as manage up and coming artists. Allman performed on Andy Black's debut solo album The Shadow Side, released in May 2016.
