Production and songwriting
Allan began as a recording artist and songwriter after "1985", a song he wrote for his band SR-71, was recorded and released by pop-punk band Bowling for Soup in 2004. The track was certified Platinum and held the record for the most iTunes downloads in a single week at the time.

In 2007, Allan was nominated for a Latin Grammy Award when the song he co-penned with Kara DioGuardi and recorded by Belinda, "Bella Traición," received a Song of the Year nomination. That same year, another song written with DioGuardi, entitled "Lost," was recorded by Faith Hill and released as the first single from her Greatest Hits project. The song spent 21 weeks on the radio charts.

In 2015, Allan achieved his first worldwide #1 pop hit by co-writing Jason Derulo's "Want To Want Me". That same year, he co-wrote "Heartbeat Song" for Kelly Clarkson, which was subsequently nominated for a Grammy Award. When Allan partnered with writer-producer Jason Evigan under the moniker "The Suspex", they co-wrote and produced Demi Lovato's "Heart Attack," which reached #4 on the Mainstream Top 40 and was certified double platinum.
