Owens will be performing “19” on Fox & Friends as part of his national television debut.
The poignant tune “19” was co-written by such country songwriters as Tom Hambridge, Jeffrey Steele and Gary Nicholson. The songs tells the story of a local football player that signed up for the military right out of high school following the September 11, 2001 terror attacks. In the end, the football star has paid the ultimate sacrifice as the tune describes a life that is tragically cut short. It is the quintessential song for Memorial Day weekend, and this holiday Owens will be partnering with Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS).
