Multi platinum selling, grammy nominated country duo Thompson Square's first podcast episode. In this episode Keifer and Shawna give a little back story to how they got started and introduce themselves to those who might not know who they are.

College Dropout Records is an American independent record label founded by Jonathon Louthan and Anthony Monteleone. Louthan and Monteleone have both been working within the underground hip-hop music scene for 10 years and both are 24 years of age. However, they did not meet until July 2013. Louthan (from Ohio) and Monteleone (from Virginia) met through a mutual friend, George Smith, who introduced them when Monteleone moved to East Palestine, OH (where Jonathon Louthan and George Smith were born and raised). After meeting they decided that they could achieve more by working together. Monteleone is a song writer, recording artist and live performer. Louthan is a graphic designer, video editor, and audio engineer. Together they decided to form College Dropout Records.

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.”

It’s gonna be a long summer. July 12. #TipOfMyTongue
