In March 2015, Allan released a new single entitled "Hangover Tonight". This song would serve as the lead single to his upcoming tenth studio album, entitled "Hard Way". In May 2016, the album's second single "Do You Wish It Was Me?" was sent to country radio. The third single is "Mess Me Up", released to country radio in May 2017. None of these three singles performed as expected on the charts, resulting in EMI Nashville delaying the release of the album. The album has not yet been released as of 2020.
