Matt Owens - Keys (2025)

Keys is more than just a music album — it's an intimate sonic journey through memory, loss, and rebirth, told through a fusion of jazz, folk, soundtrack-inspired textures, and South American influences.

Key contributors include:

David Muñoz – a Chilean pianist with whom Matt Owens worked on the UK salsa scene

John Ellis – a renowned pianist known for collaborations with The Cinematic Orchestra, Lily Allen, and Tom Jones

Kirsty Almeida – a vocalist and co-writer of the album’s most personal songs, Flow and Restless

The album features dual keyboard arrangements that create a rich, layered soundscape. Emotional depth is especially present in Almeida’s tracks, ranging from the joy of motherhood to the struggles of postnatal depression.
