I am big into water sports and just being out on the water. That is second nature to me, being from Florida. – Jake Owen
I had always loved music. I grew up listening to classic country, Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard. My dad loved Vern Gosdin and Keith Whitley. So I kept going to class and started getting totally into playing guitar and teaching myself these songs. – Jake Owen
I was given such a great gift. Its a miracle that never stops amazing me and reminding me to give thanks, every day. Having a wife and daughter gives me a lot more purpose. I was much more selfish before, but now I think about what kind of role model Ill be. I just want to be a better man. – Jake Owen
I look at my little girl and I wonder what shes going to be and what shes going to do and what is it that leads girls certain directions in life. I think a lot of that goes back to what kind of father they had, and so it makes me want to be the best dad I can possibly be. – Jake Owen
