Jake Owen Loose Cannon
Jake Owen Delivers First Taste of New Album
Following the announcement of his seventh studio album Loose Cannon (out 6/23) earlier this week, multi-platinum recording artist Jake Owen is treating fans to a first taste today with four all-new tracks from the forthcoming project just in time for Memorial Day weekend. The four-pack preview includes “Hot Truck Beer,” “Solo, Solo,” “Nothing,” and his next single to Country radio “On The Boat Again,” impacting nationwide this Tuesday, May 30.
“Hot Truck Beer” kicks off the forthcoming album, a reflective song about not changing anything from your teenage years, including learning life’s lessons with “cool cigarettes and hot truck beer.” “Solo, Solo” is a heartbreak anthem about drinking alone through a breakup with a fun twist on the classic “solo” cup. Opening with the iconic whistling theme song from The Andy Griffith Show, “Nothing” sings about the beauty of those days when you find yourself getting to kick back and relax, realizing you need nothing more. And rounding out the preview set, “On The Boat Again” interpolates the familiar chorus of Willie Nelson’s classic “On the Road Again” and adapts it for boating season, crashing onto radio airwaves nationwide as “modern country’s resident beach king” (Taste of Country) reigns at the start of the 2023 season.
Monday, Owen will debut “On The Boat Again” to celebrate the start of summer on Memorial Day with ABC’s Good Morning America before headlining a pop-up show that evening at The Rockaway Hotel in New York City to give fans a sneak peek of the new album. Owen will keep the party rolling all weekend long, starting in Charlotte, N.C. on Saturday (5/27), playing at Charlotte Motor Speedway following the Coca-Cola 600 qualifying and the ALSCO Uniforms 300 Xfinity Series.
