Ginny Owens Announces Eighth Album 'I Know A Secret'

Oct 30 2014

Singer/songwriter Ginny Owens will release her eighth studio album 'I Know A Secret' on 10th November 2014 on her own label Chick Power Music, in partnership with Word/Warner.

Owens recorded her breakthrough debut 'Without Condition' and the two albums after it with producer Monroe Jones (Third Day, Holly Williams), and 'I Know A Secret' seemed like the perfect time to revisit that fruitful partnership.

The result is an elegant eclecticism, reflecting the singer-songwriter scene that shaped Owens early on, her lifelong love of weighty Protestant hymnody, the admiration for R&B she'd acquired at her predominately African-American high school in Jackson, Mississippi and her openness to freshly ear-catching textures.

Tapping into her own experience for inspiration, Owens reflects on the past seven years during which she completed her label contract with Rocketown Records, an indie label owned by Michael W. Smith, and began releasing albums independently; spent nine months in New York City studying writing at Columbia and teaching songwriting at a middle school; returned home to Jackson to nurse her mother through breast cancer; lost both her grandmother and a beloved cousin to brain cancer; and expanded her understanding of music's power to unite people and lift their spirits as one in a new role as church worship leader.

"The singer-songwriter in me knows life is intense. I find that as I talk to people at shows, their lives parallel that. They want to tell me their stories of tragedy. And a lot of times those stories end with, 'This song of yours really helped me get through that.' I want to speak into the midst of people's pain, or whatever they're going through, as best I can."
