JAKE OWEN MAKES HEADLINES WITH NATIONAL TV DEBUT OF NEW SINGLE “REAL LIFE” ON THE 2015 CMT MUSIC AWARDS
Country superstar Jake Owen made headlines with the national TV debut of his new summer anthem “Real Life” at the 2015 CMT Music Awards last night (6/10). The epic performance – complete with life-sized inflatables, colorful set and backup dancers – showed off the laid-back singer’s fun personality and had the media buzzing.
Billboard ranked Owen as the #1 BEST performance of the night lauding, “His performance had the highest production value of any at the show … Good clean family fun,” and Perez Hilton praised, “Jake Owen throws the best real life party on stage.” Mashable noted, “…kicked off with him being carried onto the stage in a giant bed. As one should. From there, it was all beach party fun vibes and down home lyrics.”

"Real Life" (Ross Copperman, Shane McAnally, Ashley Gorley and Josh Osborne) is the first single from his forthcoming fifth studio album on RCA Nashville due out later this year. “Real Life” is now available here and sets the playful, boundary-pushing tone for the project.
Fans can catch the dapper vocalist performing “Real Life” live on Kenny Chesney’s 2015 THE BIG REVIVAL Tour throughout the summer.
Owen ascended to stardom with five #1 smashes - the 2X PLATINUM anthem “Barefoot Blue Jean Night,” PLATINUM-certified hits “Beachin’,” “Anywhere with You,” “Alone with You,” “The One That Got Away” and the critically acclaimed “What We Ain’t Got.” Previously taking home ACA and ACM Awards, the Vero Beach, FL, native has earned GRAMMY and TEEN CHOICE Awards nominations.
