Christopher Owens has announced a short string of intimate solo shows across the UK, his first since the release of this year’s Chrissybaby Forever album. Considered as one of the best songwriters of a generation for his solo work and that with his previous band, the critically lauded Girls, this tour provides opportunity for fans to hear the defining songs of Christopher’s career to date, stripped back and at their honest, vulnerable best.
“Not since Jonathan Richman has there been a songwriter so willing to convey honest and deep feelings through the most basic pop syntax” - Pitchfork
“One of the greats of our generation” - Drowned In Sound
Fusing warm atmospheric guitars with a focused and emotionally rich sense of song craft, Your Friend presents a keen balance of experimentation and structure. Momentum carries these creations through dramatic shifts that feel surprising, inevitable and always authentic. Fragmentary and evocative, Miller's lyrics are a collage of details taken from her life as well as her friends and family. Born in her bedroom and developed on stage, Miller describes the record as “deeply personal. For a long time it was hard to play these songs out because they were written for myself.”
