Stevie Allen was raised in Randolph County in Northeast Arkansas, a stone's throw from the rice and cotton fields of the Delta Valley, located at the foothills of the Ozark Mountains.

All four of Stevie’s grandparents and three of his great-grandparents lived within five miles of each other during Stevie’s youth, which instilled a principle that has become Stevie’s life theme: what’s important in life is family and never forgetting where you've come from!
Raised in the Church of Christ from a young age, Stevie would sing all of the old hymns with his preacher's wife, "Miss Katie" (an excellent alto herself), standing right next to him. Such an experience ultimately earned Stevie a choir scholarship for doing exactly what he loves, which is singing. While in college, Stevie simultaneously played college football as a successful walk-on!
Stevie is on the road frequently, but among his favorite “off-road” activities is still leading the singing at church when he’s home! Stevie attended public school in the Pocahontas School District until he finished high school in Jonesboro, after which he spent a few years in Magnolia at Southern Arkansas University. Stevie then transferred to Harding University in Searcy, where he met the love of his life, his wife Lindsay. They have now been married for over 25 years and have two wonderfully talented adult children.
