WELSH electronic artist Kelly Lee Owens used to be a nurse before pursuing music – a decision encouraged by her own patients, who recognised her talent. They were not wrong.
Since her 2017 eponymous debut album, she has become one of the most regarded and versatile female producers, collaborating with the likes of techno favourites Daniel Avery and Jon Hopkins, Velvet Underground founding member (and fellow Welsh native) John Cale, and Norwegian avant-garde artist Jenny Hval.
