This guy is the best. I have seen him play on stage. I could have died a happy man after that concert. I am getting his new album as soon as I can. I live up in Pennsylvania for college and even these guys like him.
Owen's the best. He recently played a private show in the backyard of a friend if mine in Houston. It was awesome, and not only was his talent unbelieveable, but he's well-grounded guy
This is by far Owen's best work to date. I was really impressed with how great the instruments sounded and Owen's songwriting is just top notch. "This Ain't Las Vegas" by far my most favorite track. Ingenious how the metaphor of a card game is used to talk about a relationship. If you don't have any Owen Temple material, GET THIS CD!!! If you do, spread the word about this great artist and be sure to get all 3 of his CDs.
Excellent CD. Owen Temple is an outstanding performer.
i've seen this guy i don't know how many times on an acoustic stage. he's awesome. i'll be there the next two times in college station. WHOOP!!!
General Store is pretty damn close to a perfect country album. Owens lyrics are from the heart and easy to relate too.
the best thing about texas music is there is something for everyone...and even though i am totally not into country music owen's music is the only one that can actually get me up and two-step and makes me want to wear a cowboy hat :) it's also helped me get through many road trips listening to general store all the way through...i've been listening to him for about 5 years and just recently saw him again and heard some new stuff and was equally impressed...
This is the best Texas country album I own....and thats saying ALOT! This kid will be really big in a few years
I saw Owen Temple at Tutters in Corsicana for the first time a few years back. I was blown away at the clarity and color of his voice, and how real his lyrics are. Having grown up in the Hillcountry, I'd say he paints a good portrait of life. As for the comment about being a UT frat boy...Owen's invovlement at UT just adds to his character. And you don't think that PG went to a few frat parties at Tech? And the same for REK at ATM? Hmm. As for his performance. I like a singer than can sit on a barstool with his guitar and entertain an audience, and doesn't have to say beer in every third word to entertain.
