It was Thanksgiving Day of 2012 when Jake Owen and his wife Lacey celebrated the birth of their daughter, Pearl. This year, she’ll beat the Thanksgiving holiday with her birthday coming up next Friday, November 22nd, but whatever the day, Jake is as proud a papa as he can be, and he shared a few thoughts not long ago about his little girl and life as a family man. (AUDIO INFO BELOW)

- With “Days of Gold” on the airwaves, Jake is adding fuel to the excitement for his new album with this past Monday’s release of his music video for the Days of Gold album track, “Beachin’.” And you can tell that some cool thinking went into the making of Jake’s recent videos because the “Beachin'” video also marks part two of the romance that began in Jake’s “Days of Gold” video — with another installment to follow!

“She is quickly growing, very rapidly. Her demeanor and her personality is becoming more and more evident. I see a lot of my wife in her, every day. I see a lot of me in her every day. The faces she makes and things. But the coolest part for me is that I’m at a point in my life right now and career where it’s really starting to blossom, and it’s starting to grow. And I feel fortunate that things in life tend to work out in the times that they do, like you know, that whole thought of things happen for a reason. But I look back, like, maybe four or five years ago if I was married and had a child, it would have been a lot harder than it is right now, but thankfully, the way things are going, my daughter’s able to grow up and ride a bus that I am now able to ride on my own with my wife, and she can come out to all the shows. And every night, you know, I used to sit there and look out front of stage and think how pretty those girls were in the front row, and now I look side stage by my monitor console and see the two prettiest girls in the crowd.”
