Gifted Canadian country music artist and award-winning singer and songwriter Owen Riegling, blends small-town roots with a modern edge that continues to resonate with fans across Canada and beyond.
Since winning the 2022 Boots & Hearts Festival’s Emerging Artist Competition, this Universal Music Canada recording artist has parlayed his success of his platinum-certified hit “Old Dirt Roads,” and the release of his expanded EP Bruce County (From The Beginning) to leave his comfort zone and explore new songwriting territory. A true road warrior, Rieling played more than 110 dates across Canada in 2024, not only as a headliner but alongside some of country’s biggest names including Brett Young, Jake Owen, Florida Georgia Line’s Tyler Hubbard and Chase Rice and up next, country superstar Luke Bryan.
Now, after some months in studio co-writing with top Nashville hitmakers, Riegling has evolved more confident and self-assured than ever. With new music on the horizon including upcoming single, “Taillight This Town”, showing a new level of artistry, the track captures his knack for pairing relatable stories with a sound that feels both fresh and timeless. “I’m just making the music that I would want to listen to and I’m talking about the things that mean something to me,” says Riegling. “I’m out here doing me — and that’s all I’m trying to do.”
