“THE RISING COUNTRY ACT IS BREAKING THROUGH” – BILLBOARD

NASHVILLE, TENN. – Breakout country artist Owen Riegling releases his new single “Men Into Boys” out today via Universal Music Canada and Big Loud Records stateside.
“Men Into Boys” was co-written by Riegling and Ryan Kennedy, produced by Oscar Charles, and recorded at Mighty Rose Sound in Franklin, Tennessee. The first single since his acclaimed sophomore album In The Feeling, “Men Into Boys”continues the coming-of-age focus in Owen’s songwriting by reflecting on the friendships he’s had along the way.
On the single, Riegling says, “The older I get, the harder it is to see the friends I grew up with as our lives continue to get busier. ‘Men Into Boys’ touches on the moments we all come back together and it feels like nothing has changed. We recite the same stories, drink the same beer and hang out in the same places. It’s like we can just transport back to the simple times together.”
The In The Feeling era has launched Owen to new heights. Making his Massey Hall and Grand Ole Opry debuts earlier this year, Riegling earned a standing ovation with his two-song set at the Opry that included the title track to his newly released album In The Feeling and break-out single “Old Dirt Roads,” which recently achieved double Platinum certification in Canada. Additionally, since album release, Owen took home three CMAO Awards (Male Artist of the Year, Fans Choice, Single of the Year for “Taillight This Town”) and garnered a new radio hit with “Love Hate Love” climbing charts at Canadian Radio and entering the Hot 100 Billboard Canada charts.
Yesterday, Riegling received four 2026 CCMA nominations, including Entertainer of the Year, Ford F-150 Album of the Year, Fan’s Choice and Male Artist of the Year. Following his Album of the Year win at the 2025 CCMAs, he enters this year’s awards with continued momentum and acclaim.
Riegling continues his rapid ascent as a steadfast road warrior and recently announced his upcoming North American headline run In The Feeling Tour set for fall 2026, alongside festival and support slots for Parker McCollum amongst others.

ABOUT OWEN RIEGLING
Country artist and award-winning singer-songwriter Owen Riegling is quickly emerging as one of the genre’s most authentic and dynamic new voices. Raised in the farming community of Mildmay, Ontario (pop. 1,200), Riegling pairs a small-town soul with a modern, arena-ready edge.
After winning the 2022 Boots & Hearts Festival Emerging Artist Competition and signing with Universal Music Canada, Riegling broke through with his double platinum-certified hit “Old Dirt Roads.” His expanded EP-turned-album Bruce County (From The Beginning) earned major recognition, including 2025 CCMA Album of the Year, multiple Country Music of Ontario Awards and a 2025 Juno Award nomination for Breakthrough Artist of the Year. With more than 190 million global streams, his momentum continues to build.
A relentless performer, Riegling has headlined his own shows and supported artists including Brett Young, Jake Owen, Tyler Hubbard, Chase Rice, Tyler Braden, Kashus Culpepper, Dierks Bentley and more. Life on the road paired with major personal milestones, including his recent marriage to longtime partner Liv, shaped the emotional core of his new Universal Music Canada/Big Loud album, In The Feeling. Produced in Nashville by Oscar Charles and featuring collaborations with some of Nashville’s most respected songwriters, In The Feeling captures a defining chapter of growth and self-discovery. The project finds Riegling wrestling with identity, distance from home, and the balance between ambition and belonging. Radio hit “Taillight This Town” reflects that push-and-pull between leaving and longing, while the highly energetic “Love Hate Love” showcases his big stage energy and evolving confidence.
Grounded in family, community and the values that shaped him, Riegling blends vulnerability with convictions as his sound matures, so does his sense of self. “I’m just making the music that I would want to listen to,” Riegling says. “I’m not trying to be anybody other than myself.”
From rural Canada to international stages, Riegling is no longer simply chasing the dream, he is fully stepping into it. It’s official: on In The Feeling, Owen Riegling has found himself. Now – it’s your turn to find him.
