Jake Owen Admits He Hate Missing Events with Daughter

Jake Owen remembers the days before he had a child [daughter Pearl] - and how he’d observe his crew members being so ready to get home to their kids. He admitted he once didn’t understand that excitement - but now that he’s been a dad a few years, he totally gets it.

Jake says the worst thing now though is when he has to miss big events, like a daddy-daughter dance.

"There was a daddy-daughter dance, and it was the same [day] that I had a show booked. I hate that I have to miss those moments."

Being on the road is an amazing job and has so many special moments. BUT, being away from my little girl when she learned to ride her bike with no training wheels today is tough! I am so excited for her and a proud Dad. Her excitement in her “Hey Daddy” made my whole week. Ha. It’s the little moments in life. The FIRST times. Cherish them.
