Allman grew up in Springville, Utah and later moved to Pleasant Grove, Utah. Quinn grew up watching his dad play in numerous bands as a drummer, originally picking up the drums at age 5. Some of his fondest childhood memories are watching his dad rock the drums in their Springville home. His dad was not only an extremely talented musician but a machinist.
