Jake Owen is healing nicely after a good-time go-kart race with NASCAR drivers Kevin Harvick and Clint Bowyer sent him to the hospital this past weekend, but after that and last year’s broken collarbone from a snowboarding accident, we can only hope that Jake’s daughter Pearl will keep her dad’s habitual spirit of fun and adventure, but with fewer accidents! (AUDIO INFO BELOW)
- On Tuesday, Jake tweeted a photo of his bandaged hand with the note, “Headed in for surgery… I was trying to avoid it, but since I play guitar for a living I need to get this done. — Btw..There’s no way I’d miss the chance to play @countryconcert or Fenway Park this weekend. I won’t let y’all down.” In a follow-up on Wednesday, Jake tweeted, “Surgery went well yesterday. On the mend. Currently pain pill tweeting. Might have to sit on a stool 4 shows this wk but ill be there!!”

- Earlier today, Jake was among those tweeting their support for the hospitalized Randy Travis, as Jake offered, “Before I lay my head down tonight I’m saying a prayer for @randytravis. One of the greatest singers to ever grace our ears. Amen.”
- Jake recently scored his fourth consecutive number-one hit from his blockbuster Barefoot Blue Jean Night album, home to “Anywhere with You,” “The One That Got Away,” “Barefoot Blue Jean Night,” and “Alone with You”!
Jake Owen says that his daughter Pearl seems to be the best of him and his wife, Lacey. (:13)
“I learned that she is the best of both of us. She hasn’t grown up that fast yet, but at least to my knowledge, she hasn’t acquired any of my bad habits, nor my wife’s. So, she’s pretty pure at this point in her life.”
