Tune in on Sunday, December 15th at 2pm when Rare Earth welcomes singer-songwriter, Christopher Owens, to the KALX studios for a live interview before his second Bay Area show at The Chapel on Monday, December 16th.
Not long after the release of Girls’ second album Father, Son, Holy Ghost, singer and frontman Christopher Owens announced that he was leaving the formative indie duo in pursuit of a solo career. Following the solo releases of 2011’s Lysandre, 2014’s A New Testament, and 2015’s Chrissybaby Forever, he eventually went on to release more music in 2017 with Curls. Since then, he’s continued to lead a life marked by both extraordinary highs and profound lows.
In 2024, he left a bittersweet San Francisco and moved to New York, also reuniting with home label True Panther Records (who released the original Girls records). This past October, he released his fourth solo album, I Wanna Run Barefoot Through Your Hair, a record “about a journey back to the center of myself.”
