Kelly Lee Owens is back with a new album, LP.8, which will be out digitally on April 29 via Smalltown Supersound, with the vinyl release on June 10. This one is quite a bit different than 2020's Inner Song. She made the album in Oslo with noise artist Lasse Marhaug, who has worked with with Merzbow, Sunn O))) and Jenny Hval, and looked to both Throbbing Gristle and Enya as inspiration.
What does that sound like? You can listen to two tracks now: "Sonic 8" leans more toward noise, while "Olga" is more serene, and neither are anywhere near the dancefloor. They are each quite beautiful in their own way, though. Listen below.
KLO has upcoming live dates in Australia, Europe and the UK. Those are listed below.
You can pick up Kelly Lee Owens' first album on vinyl in the BV shop.
