Owen "got" a new single
Tuesday, August 12, 2014 – Jake Owen released his new single, "What We Ain't Got," to country radio nationwide yesterday.
Written by Travis Jerome Goff and Travis Meadows, the ballad about longing for something that is out of reach.
"For me, there is a lot in my life that I have, and more that I really want, and sometimes that's good and sometimes that's not so good. People relate to that on many levels, whether it's in their marriage or in their business. This song can be a mirror to people's lives," said Owen. "Seeing the fans overwhelming emotional reaction when we play it every night on the road, I knew this had to be my next song."
"What We Ain't Got" is featured on his latest album, "Days of Gold," which also includes summer anthem "Beachin'."

He's never better than on the single and album opener, "Down to the Honkytonk." It's a 'friends in low places' drinking song, where Owen's voice gets ...
Most everyone has made up their mind on bro-country music. Maybe you love the breezy images of the beach dippin' and sippin' lifestyle, or you write it off as empty headed and repetitive. Either way, Florida native Jake Owen was a torchbearer for the genre, and it's rewarded him well - four albums and five Number One singles (remember "Beachin"?). His career has been on a more-or-less upward arc, with higher-profile tours and bigger hits each time out. ...
Jake Owen aims to satisfy all comers (that is, if the current country is your thing), but the individual pieces don't quite add up. The songs may stand up on their own well enough, but when all is said and done, Owen remains an artist without much of an identity or sound. Take, for example, Beachin', one of countless country songs about the good life. Like many of his counterparts these days, there's a spoken, neo hip hop rap part to it.
