The new album from RCA recording artist Jake Owen, American Love, will be released on July 29.
“This record has been very enlightening because I found myself through the songs. I got back to basics with American Love,” Owen says of the project.
“This is me, this is what I want to say and this is what I want people to remember me for.”
Award-winning producers and songwriters Shane McAnally and Ross Copperman co-produced eight of the tracks (one of those with Luke Laird). For the first time in his career, Jake is a co-producer on three tracks with Lukas Bracewell. There are very special guest background vocalists on American Love, including GRAMMY, CMA & ACM winners Chris Stapleton and Hillary Lindsey.
The debut single, “American Country Love Song,” is currently No. 17 on Billboard & Country Aircheck with over 127K singles sold to date and has been streamed on Spotify nearly 6 million times.
American Love is a new beginning for Owen. “Over the past few years I’ve experienced the unexpected,” he says. “My Dad received a cancer diagnosis and I, unfortunately, went through a divorce. People probably thought I would record songs that reflected those difficult times, but I found myself gravitating to songs that had more of a positive vibe and actually made me feel better by singing them. Music truly does seem to help the healing process.
“I can’t wait for people to hear these new tunes, “ Owen continues. “We just added a horn section to my band out on the road and the energy I feel on stage with these guys takes it to a another level.”
