Ginny Owens Returns With First New Album In 5 Years 'Get In I'm Driving'
Singer/songwriter Ginny Owens will release her first new studio album in five years, 'Get In I'm Driving', on 23rd August 2011. Produced by Owens, David Das (Rebecca St. James, Katharine McPhee, BarlowGirl) and Monroe Jones (Third Day, Mark Schultz, Holly Williams), the new album is described as "smoky and smooth, jazz-tinged R&B shot through with pop music sensibilities".
"I grew up listening to R&B, hip hop and soul", explains Ginny. "I got into jazz while I was in college, and I'll admit there is a part of me that loves straight pop music. My dream has always been to be versatile enough musically to play a club on Saturday night and a church on Sunday morning... and why not? People in both places love music and are desperate for hope."
'Get In I'm Driving' is an eclectic musical experience that takes you on an adventure of the soul. Songs include the thudding, breathy opening strains of the title cut, to lilting, pop-inflected 'Mystery of Grace', and playful, piano-driven 'Before You Fly'. Owens injects fetching melodies with thought-provoking lyrics to remind listeners that life is a journey; one that usually involves a lot of falling down and getting back up again.
