Music and love define the artistry of singer, songwriter, and dedicated community activist Brian Owens.These qualities radiate from all of his work, including his duet with five-time Grammy-winning and legendary vocalist Michael McDonald on SOUL OF FERGUSON and the heartfelt interpretation of Sam Cooke's "A Change Is Gonna Come," which Owens filmed and recorded with his father, Thomas Owens. Their powerful performance ignited the internet and received more than 100 million views on Facebook and Brian's YouTube channel.
