While most artists spend time in the studio listening to tracks for their albums, Jake hit the lake on his boat to make sure his songs had the summertime feel he was looking for. He shows GAC the ropes of the lake where Barefoot Blue Jean Night was born and demonstrates his wakeboarding and wake surfing skills. The special also includes acoustic performances of five songs from the album and highlights from touring with Keith Urban.
Jake on the Lake premieres tonight at 9/8 CT and re-airs throughout the week. Check the schedule for times. And don’t forget to enter our Take Jake Home Sweepstakes for your chance to win an autographed Jake Owen standup and more!
