Hello! Have finally posted some new songs up here, as written through the month of August, which was when I did the 'month long slog' (Song Blog). You can sign up to my twitter @beccyowen to receive updates on when I'm playing gigs, releasing records, having exclusive moments and stuff. Yeah, man. You heard it right.STUFF.



Also, becoming a 'fan' really lubricates my ego, making me seem popular and consequently prone to generous bouts. This, in turn, can only lead to one thing.that's right baby.free chocolate! Somehow.



You do the math.

Some more blurb.

Down With Gravity is Beccy Owen's brand new album. A compelling portrait of a musician whose relentless wit and wisdom brilliantly chronicles the most beguiling and heart-wrenching moments of human relationships, it features guest vocalists from the radiant Kate Rusby and inimitable Richard Dawson.



Owen presents us with a unique and moving musical journey that includes the stripped back intimacy of live piano and vocals on songs such as "You Are Gone" and "Drowning Minnow" to a more daring, filmic, textural vivaciousness on songs such as "Stalemate", "In Your Company" and "Blizzard", a sound that has begun to characterise Beccy's evolving vision and her on-going collaboration with co-writer/arranger Adam Kent.



Every bit as inventive, unique and arresting as those already switched on to Beccy's previous releases and live performances would expect, newcomers will also embrace this soulful gem of a record.
