Shane Owens Interview by Preshias Harris for Country Music News International Magazine & Radio Show

‘Twelve Pack’ with Shane Owens

By Preshias Harris for Country Music News International Magazine & Radio Show

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. His latest album is titled WHERE I’M COMIN’ FROM,
and the new single from the album is ‘Lie.’ Owens recorded the album
earlier this year at Nashville’s Sound Emporium Studios. He was recently
named ‘Independent Artist of the Year’ at the MusicRow Reveals 2018
Country Breakout Awards.

I ask Shane to share a 12-Pack of Q&As…

[1] Preshias: Tell me, Shane, what is your earliest musical memory?

Shane: singing in church at about 8 years old.

Preshias: If you were to be left on a deserted island for one year and
you could pick three albums to be there with you and couldn’t pick any
of your own, what would you pick?

Shane: When Alan Jackson went in to the Country Music Hall of Fame.

[5]
Preshias: Your house is on fire – all your family, children and pets
are saved. By the trick of fate you are told you can run in and get one
item to carry out, what will you save from the flames?

Shane: My family photo box.

[6] Preshias: If you could have dinner with George Washington or George Strait, which one would you chose and why?

right now (living or deceased) whom would you like to hear from?
