Jake Owen took to his Twitter page again yesterday and this time it was for his peeps in Nashville! He teased us with messages that said:
- Impromptu acoustic jam tonight in Nashville.. It will be like old times. Me,.. My buddies. Great songs. Good times. Come party!
- Wow… Looks like I sparked some interest. So “if” I was playing at a quaint pub in Nashville,… Who’s coming?
- Alley Pub Bellevue… 830-?? Bring it
I couldn’t pass up the chance to see Jake Owen live so I threw myself together got a few friends and headed out to Alley Pub. Finding the place was a bit of a problem when Hilda (my GPS – yes I named my GPS) kept redirecting us around different parts of Nashville but thankfully we got there before he started playing. Jake was there when we got there a little past 8:30. He looked so cute and laid back in his baseball cap. Then he disappeared to fix his hair and change! LOL – it made us giggle that he left to do his hair.
Jake really knows how to throw a party. Much to our great surprise Jake brought a few of his friends; Lee Brice, Danielle Peck and Eric Durrance.
There was NO set list for the night. Jake and his friends played everything from “Don’t Think I Can’t Love You” to Prince’s “Purple Rain”. The entire night was filled with a packed crowd who sang along and had a great time.
We met a Jake fan, Theresa, who drove three hours just for the “Twitter Party”. She was front and center for the whole show! Jake also mentioned that some of the people in the crowd drove down from Louisville, KY!
Jake doesn’t disapoint his fans. This is the second time I have had the pleasure to talk to him and he remembered CMTT from CRS week, thanked us for our support and took the time to even buy us drinks and take pictures. Tawny stayed home to babysit our kids and Jake even took the time to sign an autograph for her since she wasn’t able to come.
If you have not had the pleasure to see Jake live or even hear his music PLEASE go out and buy his record “Easy Does It”. Jake is someone who takes care of his fans and is making it fun for us to love him.
On a sidenote -
Lee Brice! I LOVE Lee Brice! If you don’t know who he is check out his website. He is an amazing song writer. He helped write Garth Brooks’ “More Than a Memory” and has also helped write some of Adam Gregory’s songs – “Crazy Days” and “What It Takes”.
A few of his songs that you should know are: She ain’t Right and Upper Middle Class White Trash. He is a teddy bear who has a great personality. He’s someone you just want to kick back and have a few beers with. Check him out!

Thats awesome! Glad that you had such a great time. I wish I lived in Nashville. Oh and I named my gps too.
I’m SO jealous! Jake is awesome…and Eric Durrance and Lee Brice…I love them! So disappointed I had to work last night and miss all the fun
Hopefully next time
Thanks for the review though…cute picture with Jake!
Alison – you should have jumped in the car and came down. It was a great show. You would not have been disappoined! : )
Ashlee – what did you name your GPS?
Jessica – i’m sure there will be a next time. Don’t forget Jake is having a fan club party for CMA Fest this year!
Jake was good last night and definitely worth the drive. I’m disappointed that you didn’t mention Jerrod Niemann. He is awesome also and has written hits for Garth Brooks and several others.
Glad you got to go! Don’t feel back, Alley Pub is aptly named and is easily missed. I drove by there for months without noticing it and then one day-shazam, there it was!
Thanks for posting the pics, they are great and I would agree with you regarding Lee Brice. Someone else you should really check out, is Cory Batten (great songwriter and vocals) he wrote Blakes Shelton’s “She wouldn’t be gone’ . Man i do miss nashville!
Her name is Maggie. LOL!
Well hopefully he will do something like this once I move there!!
Thanks for sharing the photos – what an awesome treat for people who could get to Nashville for it =) The blonde hair guy playing guitar next to Danielle Peck is Frankie Baillard, he just got signed to Warner Brothers. He’s from west Michigan.
GOOD STUFF!! Wish I would have been there with Ya’ll!! C. Girl – did T tell you who is playing in a golf tourney where I live??
Kim – Who is playing in golf tourney?????? Tell me Tell me!
