Ep 156: Kelly Lee Owens on death, Depeche Mode and hiding horse sh*t in an ex-boyfriend's car boot

Welsh electronic artist, producer and DJ Kelly Lee Owens has come along way in a short period of time.

Yet, her warmth and charisma mean her A-list stories of playing Ibiza’s legendary Amnesia nightclub with Charli XCX or being welcomed into the Depeche Mode family, or dining with Bill Murray don’t come across like arrogant boasts. That’s because they come sandwiched with grounded stories of her days as a cancer ward nurse, eating cheese when she gets up at 3AM and hiding horse sh*t in the boot of an ex-boyfriend's car. 

She also spoke to Stuart Stubbs about the release of her fourth album 'Dreamstate', out now on George Daniel’s (The 1975) dh2 imprint.
