  • Bio

    Owen Williams is a singer/songwriter from Southend in Essex. Owen has been writing songs and doing the odd gig here and there for the last few years. In 2008 he has finally got his act together and started recording, playing shows throughout the Essex and London area. The first album of songs "Routine Monsters" arrived in 2009 to much acclaim, showcasing a stripped-down acoustic style that made good use of a powerful voice and heart-felt lyrics. His second album, 'Happy/Sad' is due in 2010 and promises to be a big leap forward in terms of depth and sound, without losing any of its lyrical appeal.
