Christopher Owens Soars Again with ‘I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair’

Music aficionados, rejoice! Christopher Owens is back with his first new album in seven years, the evocatively titled ‘I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair’. Slated for an October 18th release via True Panther Records, the album paves a path of lyrical introspection and melody that signifies Owens’ return to the music scene after a period marked by personal challenges.
The album bursts through the silence with its lead single ‘No Good’, accompanied by a poignant live acoustic performance. Directed by the talented Rebekah Sherman-Myntti, the video encapsulates the raw emotion and authenticity that Owens has always brought to his work.
- No Good
- Beautiful Horses
- I Think About Heaven
- White Flag
- I Know
- So
- This Is My Guitar (prod. Ariel Rechtshaid & Jacob Portrait)
- Distant Drummer
- Two Words
- Do You Need A Friend
Each track is a doorway into Owens’ soul, with achingly raw narratives set against the backdrop of his life experiences. Notably, his recovery from a harrowing motorcycle accident, his struggle with homelessness, and the loss of his former Girls bandmate Chet ‘JR’ White, have all contributed to a profound sense of introspection and artistic depth that shines through in his latest work.
Owens has posed a thought-provoking twist on a biblical question regarding the true value of one’s soul in the face of worldly losses, a theme that winds its way through the album’s core. The music promises to be a balm for the weary, a celebration of regained strength, and an invitation to find solace in the ‘Kingdom of Heaven’ within.
