Bonus Owen sticker + button for a limited time

Despite its title, on At Home With Owen Chicago's Mike Kinsella (American Football, Joan of Arc, Cap'n Jazz) literally leaves the at-home bedroom that has witnessed the making of so much of Owen's past musical output. Along the way he finds true love, gains (and then loses) some weight, subscribes to cable television and experiences the death of a parent. And then he writes a record about the process -- one that details, as only Mike can, the many challenges life throws our way.Wanting to add a third dimension of sound to his music, Mike took a new approach to recording his fourth full-length. As such, At Home With Owen came together after a fraction of pre-recording at his Mom's house, followed by sessions at Semaphore Studios with cousin Nate Kinsella (Joan of Arc, Make Believe, Birthmark) and Engine Studios with Brian Deck (Iron & Wine).The end result is At Home with Owen, a welcome extension to the lineage of Owen's music. It is an album that reaches a new depth -- swaying between organic overtures and fervent, lush ballads.Press Reviews: "[Mike Kinsella] makes his masterpiece. 5 out of 5" - Alternative Press "Kinsella's most recent offering is easily his strongest" - Modern Fix "eight brilliantly composed, three-dimensional songs" - Wonka Vision

It was recorded over the course of two years by multiple engineers such as Tim Iseler (Wilco), Brian Deck (Iron and Wine), Graeme Gibson (Califone), Nate Kinsella (Joan of Arc, Birthmark), and, yes, some recording at mom’s house.New Leaves retains elements of earlier Owen material -- but here, the arrangements are more elaborate, the song structures more complex, and the lyrics more refined. Instead of lamenting failed relationships, Kinsella focuses on the new beginnings they allow.Press Reviews: "outstanding, incredibly honest, and easily relatable." - AbsolutePunk "A-" - AV Club "...quality piece of work that will be enjoyed by many" - bombshellzine
