Soulful country-folk-rock
Every song is different on this one- great music to drive to. The kind of CD you put it in and play from beginning to end.
Recommend if you like Adam Carroll, John Prine, etc.

Another great record- I have posted below of a review I just saw in No Depression (Jan-Feb '08 issue) of this CD.
OWEN TEMPLE
Two Thousand Miles
El Paisano
"Owen Temple's new disc is twelve tracks of longing for his native
Texas. Temple wrote these catchy tunes while living for two years in Wisconsin, far away from his adopted hometown of Austin.
His songs, even the rowdy ones, barrel straight through the roadhouse on the way to better, safer places, like the center of a woman's heart. He has a curl of Townes Van Zandt's spoken-word style of singing, which lifts the sincerity and power of his lyrics.
"I Just Can't Quit Loving You" lopes behind producer Lloyd Maines' patient pedal steel. "Love is harder on me that anything else I've tried," he sings. His other songs show he's tried a whole lot else. "Demolition Derby" demonstrates the wreckage that happens when lovers collide. "Swear It Off Again" doesn't dismiss what you might think (alcohol); instead, it's a a tender resignation of dreams.
But as dirty and desperate as Temple can get, he can't hide his good nature. The first track, "You Want To Wear That Ring," is a redemptive shout-out that rides high on David Grissom's guitar and the thunderous drumming of Dave Sanger."

Still good music, but it doesnt have that genuine and thoughtful Texas sound that the older CDs had. The lyrics just arent there and the band doesnt quite complement Owen like they used to.

It's impossible to hear your songs and not sing along! The new CD is amazing and I can't wait to get to your next show.

I was into Owen back in the day at UT, and listening to this new record, I am stunned as to how far he has come. These songs kick ass! I can't wait to see them live, and anyone who likes well crafted songs with a crack band had better check it out. Owen - get out here to Tennessee!

I heard Owen live in the acustic tent for the first time this weekend down at the Rowdy Ride Float Trip. He was AMAZING! I loved his music, his style, and he was extrememly easy to talk to and very humble about his music. Good luck Owen and I was soo disappointed that your CD with Red Wine and Tequila wasn't out yet! I WANT IT!!!
