The heartfelt track “Church” adds a new layer of depth to Riegling’s discography. On his inspiration behind the music, Owen shares “I’ve been playing this song live for the past year, so I’m excited to finally put it out. It’s about trying to be a good person, and sometimes still feeling lost. It’s about music being one of the things I go back to when I need to get right again. It’s a tip of the hat to one of my greatest inspirations, Eric Church.”
