Mark Owen loves the 'challenge' of living in America
30.09.2022 - 06:33 / msn.com
Mark Owen has loved the "challenge" of relocating to the US. The Take That star, his wife Emma and their three kids - Elwood, 16, Willow, 13, and Fox, ten - moved to Los Angeles last year, and Mark doesn't have any regrets about making the switch. The singer - who sold his house in England before moving to the US - shared: "I love that challenge of trying to find your way in a new place.
That kind of excites me. "I’ve been surfing for five years now. I go to the beach maybe once every week - but the big waves in Los Angeles leave me battered.
"I can get up on to the board, just not very gracefully, and not for very long. " Mark, 50, has also loved "going to a lot of gigs at the Hollywood Bowl". He told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: "I’ve seen everyone - Tame Impala, Haim, The Black Eyed Peas .
. . That’s what made me really want to go up on stage again and to put that energy into a new record.
" Mark has enjoyed huge chart success with Take That during his career. But the singer - who stars in the band alongside Gary Barlow and Howard Donald - is now hoping to land his first UK solo number one album with 'Land Of Dreams'. Speaking about his album, Mark explained: "I’m trying not to get too excited about it, but when I got the call to say I was at number two in the mid-weeks, I nearly fell off my chair.
"I was thinking about the first song I wrote the other day. It was with my dad. "I can’t remember the name, but he played guitar and I wrote some lyrics over it.
