Portion of Pre-Order Album Sales to Benefit Charlie Daniels’ The Journey Home Project
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Amerimonte Records recording artist Shane Owens’ acoustic music video for “19” will premiere on CountryRebel.com tomorrow, in celebration of Veterans Day.
“19” tells the story of a local football star signing up for the military straight out of high school following the terror attacks on September 11, 2001. In the end he pays the ultimate sacrifice as the song describes a life tragically cut short.
But on the day those Twin Towers came down
his whole world turned around
he told them all I can’t play ball there’s a war on now
he marched right in with a few good men
and joined the marines
at nineteen
(Tom Hambridge, Jeffrey Steele, Gary Nicholson)
A portion of Owens’ Veterans Day pre-order album sales will go to The Journey Home Project, a non-profit organization co-founded by Country Music Hall of Fame member Charlie Daniels to support active military, veterans and their families. “The Journey Home Project is thankful to Shane Owens for his commitment in giving back to our veterans.
