Meet our Singles

Gone are the days when being a single adult carried a stigma. It’s also a myth that there are no single men and women out there. In recent years, we’ve realized that some of the most savvy professionals not only embrace their independent status, but chose to enjoy it and to remain that way until the perfect match comes along.

Every night in the city, restaurants, galleries and even book stores are filled with perfectly content solo sophisticates totally satisfied in taking advantage of their freedom and definitely making any scene more interesting. Instead of power dating, these carefree individuals invest their time in singular passions and have serious fun while doing it.

Our round-up of those singles you need to know can be found on these pages and also seen at our annual Single in the City bash, where they’ll be auctioning off incredible date packages for their favorite charities. Are they also looking for love? Well, maybe. Turn the page to find out, and come out to meet them in person if you find some facts that make your heart beat a little faster …

Gary Allan:

After releasing five gold and platinum albums in a row, there’s no wonder that music fans are anticipating the release of Allan’s newest record (out early next month), Get Off on The Pain. True to form, the songs are exactly what Allan followers are looking for—and much more. His rugged, soulful style and touching lyrics in the romantic ballads come together to create an album mix unlike any we’ve heard in awhile (we can’t stop listening to our early release copy). His distinct, rebellious look and raw vocals already have us swooning … and looking forward to seeing him in the videos.
