If there's something I've always loved about Owen is his sound.

Bloody Mary, Owen if you're reading this you are a very very very sick man!! That tone and those grooves are sick..... And I love it!!!

I don't know how they got the Roots to be the band, but I am thankful. Hands down the best Late Night band I've ever heard
