Christopher Owens Unveils ‘I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair’, His First New Album in Seven Years

Indie music enthusiasts, get ready to lace up your metaphorical running shoes and tread alongside the lyrical landscape of Christopher Owens’ anticipated album, ‘I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair’.
Set for release on 18th October via True Panther Records, this album is a beacon of Owens’ indefatigable spirit – a testament to his artistic resurrection.
- The inaugural single ‘No Good’ serves as a precursor to the album’s tenacious tone, accompanied by a live acoustic performance that’s nothing short of raw vehemence.
