Interesting Facts, Height and Trivia :

- Back in 2012, Revolver Magazine nominated her as one of the Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock.
- In an interview with Rock Revolt Magazine, the singer said that she discovered she loved rock music when she was in 5th Grade. She listed some bands that inspired her, such as Alkaline Trio, but ensured she does not really limit herself to only one style.
- She revealed she never wanted to use her father’s fame to get opportunities for her own career. Allman said that people would have thought she had everything handed to her with no effort, unlike other artists. That kind of judgment, in fact, makes the job more difficult.
- During the first years of the band, Layla used to scream on their songs to give them a more aggressive sound. It changed when they released an EP in 2012, and she stopped doing it. She was harshly criticized by her fans, who missed her old way of singing. The vocalist said in an interview that the band was looking for a new style and hoped the fans would support their decision.
- She tries to connect with her fans as much as possible since she believes having a good relationship with them is what carries an artist through the music business.
