Albums From Jake Owen and Randy Montana On The Way

Jake Owen will release his third studio album Barefoot Blue Jean Night (RCA) on August 30.
“It is kind of ironic that my new album is being released on August 30, two days after I turn 30 and this is my third record,” says Owen. “This album is a big step for me and my career and I can’t wait for people to hear it.”
The 11-track album splits production between the team of Joey Moi and Rodney Clawson, as well as Tony Brown. The title track and first single is quickly climbing the charts and has sold over 200k digital units.
Owen will join the US leg of Keith Urban’s Get Closer 2011 World Tour starting this weekend (6/16) in Biloxi, MS. Owen joined Urban onstage during CMA Music Fest 2011 to duet on Owen’s hit “Don’t Think I Can’t Love You.”

Emmylou Harris provides guest vocals on a track called “Last Horse.”
Montana has spent much of the last year touring on the road with superstars like Lady Antebellum, Little Big Town and Sugarland. This summer he will join Taylor Swift for select dates of her Speak Now tour.
