Country singer Jimmie Allen is gearing up for a comedy tour this fall, which he announced on the heels of countersuing two women, including a former manager, who recently accused the musician of sexual assault.

The Grammy nominee, 38, who has denied all the accusations against him, took to Instagram Thursday to tell his nearly 480,000 followers to keep an eye out for “dates coming soon,” as he tries his hand at another monetary route.

“‘I Said What I Said,’ and I’m gonna say it again during my 3-night comedy tour this October!” the “Best Shot” singer captioned the promotional image. “ALL shows are invite only, so be sure signup with your e-mail via link in bio to receive the latest news & how to win tix.”

Allen slammed the claims as “numerous false allegations” in a statement to Entertainment Tonight, noting he countersued the women “to protect my reputation and refute these claims that have caused severe damage to my family, mental health, and business.”

He pointed to the “vast number of business and endorsement opportunities” he’s lost in the wake of the claims, noting he’s since sustained “severe financial damage.”

One of Allen’s accusers, identified only as “Jane Doe,” was his former day-to-day manager, who claims to have been raped and repeatedly sexually abused and harassed by Allen for more than a year, according to Variety’s bombshell report in May. In a statement to the outlet, Allen said that the relationship had been consensual.

The second accuser, identified as “Jane Doe 2,” sued Allen in June for assault and battery, claiming he secretly filmed their sexual encounter.

Allen, who in April announced he and his pregnant wife had split, said earlier this month that they were giving their marriage another try.

Allen has recently been dropped by agency UTA as well as BBR Music Group — following news of the second suit — and was pulled from the CMA Fest.
