Chamber Folk EP announced

Monday 1 January, 2018

Owen's new EP, curiously entitled Chamber Folk, will be released on Friday 8 June 2018. An innovative reinterpretation of traditional songs, utilising the combined forces of a chamber ensemble of woodwind and strings, complemented by electronic timbres and an intuition for creative harmony and driving rhythms, this is not your regular folk music debut.
