Christopher Owens has announced his first new album in seven years, 'I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair'
The San Francisco-based artist's first album in seven years explores themes of loss and redemption.
Christopher Owens has announced his new album, 'I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair'.
The full-length is set for release on 18th October via True Panther Records. The former Girls frontman has also shared a new single, 'No Good', accompanied by a live acoustic performance video directed by filmmaker Rebekah Sherman-Myntti.
Owens has faced significant challenges since his last release, 2017's 'Vante' by Curls, including a motorcycle accident, periods of homelessness, and the passing of former Girls bandmate Chet "JR" White.
Speaking about the themes of the album, Owens says: "In the second half of the Bible, Jesus asks 'What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul?' Lately I've found it interesting to ask it in a different way. 'What shall it profit a man, if he lose his whole world, and gain back his soul?' And I think the answer would have to be something like — The Kingdom of Heaven."
