Breaking the news across social media first, Owen shared, “I couldn’t be more excited to announce ‘Made For You,’ this song has been so special to me and many others. I’m excited to finally hear it on the radio.”
“Each line — ‘Water towers are made for hearts and names/Friday nights are made for football games’ — is really powerful, and it hits everybody in a unique way. And everyone has somebody that they feel like they were made for,” he added in a recent interview with Billboard.
“Made For You” is the fourth single off Owen’s critically-acclaimed album GREETINGS FROM…JAKE (Big Loud Records) following “Homemade,” which topped charts across North America, marking his eighth career #1 in the U.S., and his sixth #1 in Canada. GREETINGS FROM…JAKE takes Owen back to his traditional country influences and his Floridian roots.
