Interview with Nashville based Singer Stephanie Owens and her latest single ‘Work For Shoes’

Stephanie Owens is a country music artist based in Nashville Tennessee. Her latest single is called ‘Work For Shoes’. Following is our interview with her:

Where do you live now?

I live in Nashville, Tennessee – Music City!

Do you have any siblings?

Yes! I have a younger brother named Nathaniel. He is very musical too! That was very fun growing up. He’s a crazy great guitarist and is a worship leader at a church in Arkansas.

How were you discovered?

While country music is my passion, my platform for that began only in 2018. I independently released my debut EP, and press features and other opportunities opened up from there. I would say I was “discovered’ when I was seven years old when I auditioned for a Veggie Tales recording. Being chosen by industry people to record for that CD gave me a special confidence at that young age. Recording in that studio ignited something in me, and I knew from that moment on that I wanted to pursue a career as a solo artist!

What was your first show?

My first show where I performed my original music was in 2018, but I would say that my first real performance was in high school. My church back home in Virginia always puts on a huge Fourth of July celebration where about 10,000 are in attendance. They asked me to sing a solo at the concert one year, and I sang “Independence Day” by Martina McBride. That was so much fun! I also performed in many musicals and shows, beginning in elementary school. My parents always remind me about how I sang “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” in front of a huge crowd at Disney World when I was two years old haha. The stage has always felt like home, and I’ve been performing pretty much my whole life!

What is your most memorable career moment?
My most memorable career moment to date was performing my song “Little Girl in the Mirror” and sharing my eating disorder recovery story on national tv on The Huckabee Show. That was such a blessing and surreal moment!

Who are some of your favorite singers?

My favorite country singers are Carrie Underwood, Martina McBride, and Dan and Shay. I grew up listening to CCM artists Natalie Grant and Nicole Nordeman, and singing along to their songs really helped me learn how to sing. I also think that David Phelps also has one of the best voices of anyone on the planet. He really inspires me vocally!

Who is your style icon?

I honestly don’t have one in particular. I tend to pull inspiration from current fashion trends in the country music scene. Sequins will always be an important staple in my wardrobe!

How would you describe your personal style?

My personal style kind of has two sides haha. Whenever I’m performing or am in the music community, I love wearing anything with bold colors and sequins! I’m all about the glam and awesome shoes. Never underestimate the power of wearing high heels. They make me feel confident! I also like going with either a flowy top and more form-fitting pants/leggings or wearing a dress that has a more fitted top and a flowy skirt. Now when I’m at home or just going about my day-to-day routine, I’m all about the t-shirts and leggings and throwing my hair up in a Ponytail.
