  • EP 51 - Shane Owens: You Go Good
    Shane Owens makes traditional country music for the modern world. Timeless and timely, it’s a classic sound with a contemporary edge, driven forward by a mix of Southern storytelling, Bible Belt twang and Owens’ big, booming baritone. 
    Long before he hand-built his career in the honky-tonks and country clubs of the Southeast, Shane Owens grew up in Alabama. In many ways, it was a classic American upbringing, centered on family, faith and music.
    Shane Owens has been building a strong following for more than a decade. His powerful vocal range combined with the emotional lyrical content of his songs has made him a favorite of fans, critics, and fellow artists alike. 
    Shane Owens puts his southern charm on display with the release of his latest single “You Go Good.” Owens’ lyrics prove how some things just fit perfectly together, whether they’re a likely pair or not. 
    Like how a “Sunday needs a sermon” or as opposite as Hollywood and red clay Georgia, all he knows is “you go good with me.” Owens’ distinct voice shines on this sweet tune, delivering the perfect country love song. 
    And without further a due, one of my favorite voices in country music today, Shane Owens.
