A singer with a poetic, restrained intensity, Kate Owen has been song-writing for 20 years and performing live for a decade, but until now has never recorded an album. Her sound ranges from stripped-back laments to 90’s pop anthems. Her debut album ‘Not A Proper Girl’ showcases Owen’s songs with rich textures including synth and strings, and strong rhythmic pulses from live kits to drums machines. Owen lives in Lyttelton.
