McGonigel's Mucky Duck presents Nic Cowan.

Cowan’s songs are designed to spark a good time. Particularly in tracks like “Gutter Song,” “Wrong Side” and the title track, his bad-boy persona comes through loud and clear. But the approach is seasoned with a humorous wink, and is interspersed with heartfelt, laid-back cuts like “I Won’t Let Go” and “Reno.” While it’s sure to spark audience sing-alongs, it’s not calculated in the slightest. As Cowan sings in “New Shit”: “Let me set this straight from the start / I don’t do this so I get on the charts.”

As Cowan tells it, “Hard Headed” was written about a man’s resistance to being controlled by a lover. Despite that, it’s become a gender-spanning audience favorite. “I thought it was going to be an anthem for men everywhere, but it turns out women love this song,” he notes with a smirk. “They come up to me all the time, saying, ‘that’s my jam!’ I think at the end of the day everyone likes to think of themselves as a little bit hard headed and not easily influenced.”
