About Roy Allen
...some guy with a guitar...
Hello my name is Roy Allen. I was born and raised at the edge of Minneapolis Minnesota. Plymouth to be exact. At the time there was only three houses in my neighborhood. I could walked through a little stretch of woods and boom, it's suburbia. When I'd go the other way it's countryside.
There was a lot of accordion playing from my uncle and oldest sister. My other older sister taught me guitar at age ten. I didn’t practice as much till later in life. Well here I am now at 65 wishing I would have, but I'm getting out there and performing and loving it.
I felt I was getting better when the rug was pulled out from under me. During a doctor’s visit I was diagnosed with cancer. Radiation, Chemotherapy then surgery and seven months later, but here I am, continuing my music journey. Click on my photo to list to my song My Last Goodbye.
