Lyrics and Music by Philip Bowen
V1
She likes Nick Drake, and I like the Milk Carton Kids 
And we both love boat rides after dark 
Sometimes we use my phone to find the constellations 
And dancing on the water we can count the stars  

V2
She likes the Weepies and I like the Brother Brothers
And we both love chasing lightning bugs 
Burnin' up the hillside with their little tails afire 
Glowing in the darkness like the two of us  

Chorus: 
She loves me, she loves me 
Well in any weather
She loves me when it's cold outside. 
I love her, I love her 
Hell or high water 
And even when we see through different eyes
We still chase the fireflies (chase the fireflies) 

V3
She likes Coldplay live and I prefer Lake Street Dive 
And we both love how concerts make us feel 
When we're on the water, watching time fly by together 
The mountains and the moonlight play our favorite song

This is the sound of a man standing in front of the life he built — watching it burn.
“Seven Years Back” dives deep into heartbreak, betrayal, and the raw anger that follows. It’s Texas outlaw country at its core: rough edges, hard truths, and a glass of whiskey that knows more than it should.
If you’ve ever been lied to, left behind, or forced to rebuild from ashes, this one’s for you.

I Adopted a Dog and Now I Have No Couch


There are too many ways
To be lonely these days
Too many lovers
Goin hungry for love
It tears me apart
It weighs on my heart
Late at night, when I think of you
New in town with nothin to do
Lyin awake
By your lonesome in the dark...

Welcome to California
Help yourself to a brand new state of mind
I've got a feelin
We're gonna get on just fine
If you're on the run I'll hide ya
If you ever get lost,
I'll be here to guide ya
Far away from the world
You've always known
I'm happy to be
Your home away from home

Don't be hard on yourself
Won't you let someone else
Hold you and give you
What you can't get on your own
There ain't no reason why
We can't give it a real good try
Come on honey, don't delay
The best of the night is slippin away
We can kick off our shoes
And let the weary old world roll by

Welcome to California
Help yourself to a brand new state of mind
I've got a feelin
We're gonna get on just fine
If you're on the run I'll hide ya
If you ever get lost,
I'll be here to guide ya
Far away from the world
You've always known
I'm happy to be
Your home away from home

Eager to be whatever when you need me
Ready to come and get you when you call
Willin to be the one you tell your troubles to
Honey, y' know, it ain't no trouble at all

Welcome to California
Help yourself to a brand new state of mind
I've got a feelin
We're gonna get on just fine
If you're on the run I'll hide ya
If you ever get lost,
I'll be here to guide ya
Far away from the world
You've always known
I'm happy to be
Your home away from home

Happy to be
Your home
Away from home


Home Away From Home

A trusted troubadour for hot summer nights and cold beers, Owen is now in his forties, tangling with separations from lost lovers, raising kids, and growing out of the fresh-faced kid that headed down to Nashville 20 years back with a six-string and a dream.  Case in point: Dreams to Dream, Owen’s long-awaited, Shooter Jennings-co-produced foray into classic, honky-tonk country, out November 7 via Good Company Entertainment. Dreams to Dream, Owen’s first independent studio album, featuring 10 original tracks and two stellar covers, tells the tale of a man at a crossroads — and what it takes to set out a new path. 

Owen wasn’t expecting much when he commented on one of Shooter Jennings’ Instagram posts, half-jokingly suggesting that they make a honky-tonk record, but the producer called his bluff. Two days later, Owen’s manager had Jennings on the line and, soon, Owen was on his way to L.A. and Jennings’ Sunset Sound. It was a cozy yet electric scene: Jennings and Owen cracking jokes in the sepia-toned studio, creativity crackling as they collaborated with the likes of songwriters Ben Chapman and Kendell Marvel, as well as long-time shooter pal, guitarist/harmonic player Leroy Powell. 

“All my friends who have heard my stuff have gone, ‘Dude, Jake, this is you man. This is who you've always tried to be,’” Owen says. “Sometimes you need to get outside what's comfortable, what people think you are, or think you should be, and take a risk.”
