Jake Owen and Mark McIntyre have been cultivating their friendship and musical unity in New York City since meeting in the downtown art-rock scene in 2015. Since then, they have been developing their rare guitar symbiosis and taste for adventurous songwriting in off-hours recording sessions and through Mark’s long-term residency at the 55 Bar in Greenwich Village. Together, they craft a new sound that lives somewhere between hypnotic Radiohead-style grooves, Elliot Smith’s thoughtful intimacy, and the electric spontaneity of Jimi Hendrix.
