Allie Brooks is definitely carving out her own path in a way that feels both intentional and deeply authentic. With a last name like Brooks, there’s no doubt she could’ve easily leaned into her famous lineage — but choosing instead to step into the spotlight with original music, like “Close Enough,” shows she’s got the heart of a true artist.
The song itself is a beautiful showcase of her individuality. There’s a softness in her delivery that draws you in, and that stripped-down acoustic vibe lets her lyrics and voice shine without distraction. It feels honest — like you’re sitting in the room with her, catching a glimpse of something real and unfiltered.
And doing all this at just 20, while balancing school in Nashville, shows a strong sense of drive and dedication. Being surrounded by legends like Garth and Trisha no doubt provided inspiration, but Allie seems committed to proving her talent is all her own.
It’s also sweet to hear Garth planning a tattoo in her honor — it says a lot about the bond they share, and the pride he must feel watching her step into her own spotlight.
