"Owen Lake and the Tragic Loves makes music that sounds completely unlike anything else, while simultaneously drawing inspiration from the traditions of 1960s American country music, 1980s dream pop, and modern electronic dance music. With heart-tugging tunes and hard-driving synthesizer licks, his band the Tragic Loves brings tight three-part vocal harmony, buttery bloops and bleeps, crying pedal steel, and pounding electronic drums together in a way that feels strangely right. Their music runs the entire gamut of human emotion - from sadness over a recent breakup, to depression over an impending divorce, to despair over a lifetime prison sentence. “The Best of Your Lies,” Owen’s first full length album, follows a genre-bending EP that staked his claim on this unique sound and established him as America’s #1 electro-country musician. It’s real country music from the heart, blending dingy honky-tonk barroom atmosphere, dirty late-night dance club delirium, and the faded glamour of sweeping countrypolitan string orchestras. "
