Jake Owen

The fun kicks off May 5!

The story isn't quite what you think.

Did you know that these well-known country songs were almost hits for other artists?

Owen's new song is a carefree, escapist ode to life on the water.

It's a progressive throwback, if one will allow such a contradiction.

The song allegedly borrows part of its structure and lyrics from an earlier work.

The event, called 'Jake Owen & Friends: A Concert Made For You,' will take fans behind the scenes of some of the country star's biggest hits.

Plus new songs by Dierks Bentley, Kelsea Ballerini and Walker Hayes.

LoCash, Runaway June, Vince Gill and many more will also join the lineup.

The spot where the country star proposed to his now-fiancee holds a special meaning to the couple.
