Jake Owen reveals everything that led up to his new Dreams To Dream album and PHEW! It’s a lot. Evan Paul asked one question and 13 minutes later Jake had told us about his breakup, how no one came calling when he lost his last record deal, his love for Hank Jr. and how he flew into a fire to record an album while his personal life was (metaphorically) on fire.
The second half of this interview looks back at his career. Jake proudly (17:30) owns starting bro country with “Barefoot Blue Jean Night” in 2011. He then (23:30) opens up about his friendship with Kenny Chesney and what’s in his future until he’s quite suddenly interrupted by a good friend. Then (32:27) the Night Cap with Billy Dukes.
Other people mentioned during this conversation: Shooter Jennings, Waylon Jennings, Alan Jackson, Brooks & Dunn, Peyton Manning, Florida Georgia Line and more.
