Bringing Country Closer
I feel like Greetings from…Jake is a strange, yet profound, combination of Owen coming back to his roots and reinventing himself all at the same time. It’s the coolest thing ever. I bet it’s good to be Jake Owen right now.

Six Shooter Country
It’s a perfect time to release the album as the days are lengthening and the weather is warming up. I can’t remember the last time I heard an album with so much sunshine in it. If you’re going to listen to it, take my advice – remember to drink plenty of fluids, and you’re probably going to want to have some factor 30 sun cream handy.

Lyric Magazine
Ultimately, this is half a party-album – perfect for the red solo cup waving gigs of summer (plastic see-through cups should we see Owen in the UK) – and half about soul searching and about growing up and finding love & contentment.

Sounds Like Nashville
Jake Owen fully embraces the “good vibes only” mentality on his latest album Greetings…from Jake.
-
Country Standard Time
"Greetings From...Jake" is not a completely traditional country music album, but Owen's drawly singing and the steel guitar - which particularly colors "Damn" - make this one surprisingly rewarding listening experiences.

Radio
Greetings From…Jake is a journey into the prerequisite small town for fishing and beer and tequila drinking at a party you want to be at. Owen is convincing enough that grabbing a significant other to live vicariously through the music at a park on a warm spring day seems not only necessary, but should happen immediately.

All Music
Modesty becomes Owen: the music flows with insouciance, and his singing seems friendly and just slightly sly, qualities that help make his taste for corn seem endearing, not embarrassing.

Your Life In A Song
Owen has re-discovered a sense of freedom and fun with Big Loud Records but that is balanced out on ‘Greetings…’ by him embracing aging, embracing his stature as a soon to be father of two and reflecting a little more on his origins and what he wants the next phase of his life to be about. It’s a perfect mix of 90’s cheeky Country vibes and reflective musings of the meaning of life and as an album as a whole.

The Musical Divide
With the winds changing direction in Nashville and Owen already capturing two hits from this album, I’d say there’s certainly still a place for him.

Raised Rowdy
We could highlight literally every song on this project, it is probably his best album yet. So find some sun, grab a cold one, and crank up this album you won’t be skipping any of the 14 tracks.

Miss 103
The preview of the new album proved that this project is stacked with feel-good country anthems layered with clever lyrics that maintain that easy breezy vibe that Jake Owen fans have come to expect.
