He’s not your average country music singer: with his laid-back attitude and sun-infused lyrics, former wake-border Jake Owen is making waves on the country music scene with his fourth album “Days of Gold”. <br /><br />For the title song, “Days of Gold”, which is all about good times spent with friends, the Florida-born artist enlisted the help of two big names in country music: Jaren Johnston and Neil Mason. <br /><br />“This is the first record where I haven’t written anything. I usually write most of my songs, but this time around, I was so lucky to have so many great songs being thrown my way that it was hard not to want to record them. I don’t think I really set out to say, ‘Well, this song is about a break up, this song is about a good time, this song is about…” I just thought it was really important to fill this record full of great songs,” said Jake Owen.<br /><br />After opening for established country music artists like Keith Urban and Tim McGraw, Jake Owen says he learned a lot from being on the road with such talent. <br /><br />For “Days of Gold”, Owen pairs up once again with Joey Moi who successfully produced his breakthrough album, “Barefoot Blue Jean Night”, back in 2011. <br /><br />The album has received mostly positive reviews by critics who praise its energy-infused pace and the singer’s contagious confidence.<br /><br />“Days of Gold” is out now.
