On sophomore album Love Out of Lemons, Bones Owens continues to evolve his cultured rock songwriting while capturing the energy of his renowned live shows. Releasing on July 12 by Black Ranch Records, Love Out of Lemons collects deeply grooving snapshots of carefree times and top-down drives with subtleties that linger long after the partys over. This record sort of picks up where my debut full-length left off, offered Owens from yet another hotel room on yet another tour. Energetic rock very typical of my live show. Owens self-described chameleon-like approach has not only played a pivotal role in his own music, but the ability to collaborate with artists across all genres, having worked with Yelawolf, Mikky Ekko, and Grammy-nominated, Jelly Roll.Like Eighteen Wheeler, Love Out of Lemons was produced by Paul Moak at his Smoakstack studio in Nashville. But while the EP was something of an introspective departure for Owens, Love Out of Lemons is a blithe dive into his eclectic, nuanced rock and alt-roots sensibilities, from the genre-fluid grooves of heyday War to the lean bluesy influence of Creedence Clearwater Revival. I wanted to do another record that was largely rock, but also for it to have more than one gear, said Owens. Love Out of Lemons features co-writes with Henry Brill (Phantogram, Jack Garratt) on Born Again and Austin Jenkins (Leon Bridges, White Denim) on Higher Than I Wanna Be. Drums throughout were played by Julian Dorio (The Whigs, Eagles of Death Metal), with all other instruments handled by Owens and producer Moak. The albums intentions are clear from the first bars of the opening title track; an irresistibly head-bobbing, outdoorsy strut that explores relationships from which love will never bloom, no matter how hard one or both parties try. I was thinking of Eric Burdon or War as kind of the starting point for that song, Owens recalled.I think its perfect that the record is coming out in the Summer, he concluded before heading out to the nights soundcheck. Because it very much feels like a sunny day, drivin-down-the-road soundtrack to me.
