What a night for Jax State and our very own Randy Owen!

The Randy Owen Center for the Performing Arts officially opened Wednesday night with a sold-out tribute concert honoring the Jax State alumnus and country music legend.

Artists from across the country music industry came together to celebrate Mr. Owen’s extraordinary career and lasting impact on the industry, performing many of Alabama’s greatest hits in front of a packed house at the ROC. Many of the evening’s guest appearances were kept secret from Owen ahead of the show, creating a night filled with emotional surprises and unforgettable moments.

Thank you to Alabama, Teddy Gentry, Drake White, Gordon Mote, Mark Wills, The Isaacs, Tommy Harden, The Oak Ridge Boys, Pam Tillis, Kelly Owen and Megan Mullins Owen, Luke Bryan, Jamey Johnson, Riley Green, Jason Aldean, and everyone who helped make this historic night possible.

This was more than a concert — it was the beginning of a new chapter for Jax State and the arts in Northeast Alabama.
