- Owen Temple is an American folk and country music songwriter and musician based in Austin, Texas. Work with producer and pedal steel guitar musician Lloyd Maines led to 1997's General Store and 1999's Passing Through. The year 2002 saw the release of the Phil Madeira-produced Right Here and Now. In 2007, Temple was a Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk Finalist, and he was the winner of the 2007 B. W. Stevenson Songwriting Competition. Two Thousand Miles, a fourth studio project, was produced by Maines and was released on January 22, 2008 on El Paisano Records. The recording features David Grissom on guitar, Asleep at the Wheel's David Sanger on drums, and Glenn Fukunaga on bass. A review in Allmusic noted "great lyrics full of insight and plainspoken poetry. " A review in No Depression suggested that "his songs, even the rowdy ones, barrel straight through the roadhouse on the way to better, safer places, like the center of a woman`s heart. He has a curl of Townes Van Zandt`s spoken-word style of singing, which lifts the sincerity and power of his lyrics. " A fifth studio album, Dollars and Dimes, was released June 9, 2009. It is a concept album focused on different regions of North America during hard times. In July 2009, the album was the #1 record on the Euro Americana Chart. In August 2009, the album was #5 on the Freeform American Roots chart.
