Owen Riegling

Owen Riegling is the kind of artist so down to earth his boots are always dirty. He’s a small-town kid with his roots firmly planted in the songs he sings. There’s something organic about the way Owen does what he does. It’s hard to put a finger on exactly what makes it so special, but it’s even harder to ignore how fast it’s growing. The qualities come through as soon as you hear him sing. Call it obvious authenticity. A lack of pretension. Call it being raised in Mildmay, Ontario, a town of 1,200 where keeping yourself grounded is the only way up. It’s no accident that the same small-town humility and authenticity translated into the massive Platinum-certified radio hit single “Old Dirt Roads.”

2023 was a wild ride for Owen—signing a deal with Universal Music Canada, releasing a series of chart-climbing singles, touring coast to coast, working with some of Nashville’s biggest writers and producers, and gracing the main stage at Boots & Hearts—all while managing to keep his feet on the ground. Owen has been part of Apple Music’s UpNext Program and launched into 2024 as one of Spotify’s Hot Country Artists To Watch and Amazon Canada’s Breakthrough Artists to Watch.

Charging into 2025 with no signs of slowing down. Owen is now a 2x CCMA Award winner with over 140 million global streams, he tore through 103 shows in 2024 including his debut Canadian headline tour, The Old Dirt Road Trip. This year brings an even bigger run, with a packed festival season ahead—including Country Thunder, Boots In The Park, Boots & Hearts, and support slots for Luke Bryan’s upcoming Country Song Came On summer tour, plus Owen will play three local/hometown shows in Tweed, Lucknow, and London’s Rock the Park.
