Craig Owens Issues Reimagined Version Of Chiodos Classic

Craig Owens Spring 2023

Craig Owens, known for his role as the powerhouse vocalist of Chiodos, Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows (D.R.U.G.S.), Isles & Glaciers, and badXchannels, has unveiled his debut solo release, VOLUME 1, set to hit the airwaves on August 18 through Velocity Records. The 11-track album showcases Owens‘ unparalleled talent as he revitalizes cherished songs from his illustrious discography, alongside a captivating original track that has never graced the ears of his devoted fanbase before.

In an exhilarating revelation, Owens has reimagined the beloved Chiodos track, “Baby, You Wouldn’t Last A Minute On The Creek.” This iconic post-hardcore gem has been transformed into a resplendent ballad, breathing new life into its chaotic origins. As the original piano composition of the song blossoms into a mesmerizing symphony, Owens‘ vocals transcend boundaries, radiating raw emotion and forging a profound connection with listeners.

“‘Baby, You Wouldn’t Last A Minute on the Creek’ is a song about a relationship that has reached a point of stagnation or dissatisfaction and a desire to end a relationship that has lost its spark and meaning,” Owens shares. “The song portrays a sense of disillusionment, a desire for a clean break, and an acknowledgment that walking away is the best course of action despite the pain.”

On his social accounts, Owens continues, “For nearly 20 years I have played in your living rooms, hometown venues, and local dive bars. Together in these moments, the music shared has taken on a life of its own. This album of reimagined classics was made to honor these moments with a partner in these studio recordings. This album is a gift for those who have supported me from the beginning.”

Owens kicks off his extensive 26-show tour today, Tuesday, June 6 in Denver, CO, with support from Kurt Travis (​​Royal Coda, Push Over), Moxy, and Voila. You can check out Craig Owens’ full touring schedule below and grab tickets here.
