Nothing is more important to Jake Owen than raising his two little girls, Pearl (10) and Paris (3), to know their full potential. And who better to show them than the powerful women of Country music?

LISTEN NOW: Jake Owen praises women of Country music

Jake recently joined Audacy’s Katie Neal during his time at Tortuga Music Festival and expressed how grateful he is to raise his daughters around the fearless, trailblazing women of the genre.

“They loved Shania,” Jake said of his daughters getting to watch her set at the festival. “It was fun. Those are the things that I’m lucky to do in having this career as well. Being able to take my family and stand side-stage at Shania Twain’s concert - she’s sold 100 Million albums…. Think about that!”

Jake isn’t the only one impressed by the 90s icon. He shared his eldest daughter, Pearl, was especially captivated by Twain and he was more than happy to see it.

“I think she’s just enamored by the fact that that’s possible,” Jake said of Pearl’s admiration for Shania. “I love that about the girls that are out on the radio right now. I love everything they’re doing — females in Country music — because as a father of a daughter, I love that it’s inspiring to her to see these females out here expressing themselves and singing about what they know and what they wanna say. It gives a lot of confidence to little girls like Pearl, who sits there and watches them.”
