Today, acclaimed electronic artist Kelly Lee Owens releases her highly anticipated fourth studio album, ‘Dreamstate,’via dh2, the new electronic imprint from The 1975’s George Daniel and Dirty Hit.
The album is now available on all major streaming platforms, with physical editions also available [here].
‘Dreamstate’ is a deeply personal album, one of self-discovery, healing, and transformation. From the addictive lead single ‘Love You Got’ to the contemplative closer ‘Trust and Desire,’ Owens reflects on the importance of dreaming, particularly for fans who come from a similar world to her. “When you come from a world where nothing is handed to you, it’s more important than ever to dream bigger and give yourself permission to pursue the impossible.”
The album was self-produced by Owens, with additional production and programming from heavy-hitters including George Daniel, BICEP, and The Chemical Brothers. Mixed by David Wrench, the album also features collaborative contributions on the blissful sunrise trance track ‘Rise’with Andrew Ferguson and Matthew McBriar and the stunning ‘Ballad (In The End)’ with Tom Rowlands.
In support of ‘Dreamstate’, Kelly has also announced details of her forthcoming UK and European tour, and will see Kelly play 13 dates across UK and Europe throughout March 2025.
‘Dreamstate’ has already been performed over recent months to different rapturous dancefloors across the globe, including at a recent Glastonbury set, a free show played alongside Caribou in a North Wales community centre accessible-to-all, tours supporting collaborators The Chemical Brothers and Bicep, and a gig playing Charli XCX’s PARTYGIRL takeover at Ibiza’s historic Amnesia nightclub and a performance at Boileroom’s takeover of Manchester’s Warehouse Project alongside Peggy Gou.
‘Dreamstate’ continues that evolution with its focus on collaboration and introspection.
Kelly Lee Owens is giving herself full permission to dream—and inviting us all to do the same.
