Owen Temple - Two Thousand Miles

With grit and a grin, Texas-based singer/songwriter Owen Temple comes barreling out of the Lone Star state with his new album Two Thousand Miles. The record, produced by famed Texas music legend Lloyd Maines (Dixie Chicks, Terri Hendrix, Terry Allen), is a dusty backroads blend of heartache and hope.

Owen Temple is a man and songwriter who has traveled thousands of miles, literally and artistically. Two Thousand Miles has been a lifetime in the making. Through all the miles and highways he’s travelled, Temple has come to a new beginning.

He’s at home in the gritty realism that harkens back to his songwriting heroes like Steve Earle and Joe Ely. Rough and ragged characters on the edge (Like We Still Care, Demolition Derby) sit comfortably alongside heartfelt ruminations on love (You Want To Wear That Ring, You Don't Have To Be Lonely). The stirring title track is a radio-ready, roll-down-the-windows anthem that showcases a singer ready for prime time.
