Julia MacCary editor Eras Tour opener Christian Owens, who goes by the stage name Owenn, says he was in the recording studio “in the womb.” Granted, his mom was a Sony-signed artist and part of the 1990s group Lyric. Given his mother’s background, music was always around him. Owenn spoke with Variety over Zoom in his hotel room having just arrived in Chicago for his second stop on Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. His next day is jam-packed, starting at 7 a.m. and ending with his performance on Soldier Field. The singer describes the first night of performing on the tour as “electrifying” as he looks forward to making his show even better with his remaining stops.
