CLASSIC FM

 

Owen wrote a series of bespoke tracks for one of the UKs most popular radio stations Classic FM; his music was used by advertising partners such as Honda, Kindle, The Sunday Times, Actimel and Nissan as well as station content including the Alan Titchmarsh Show, Classic FM’s Musical Mystery Tour, the Drive Time Show and Classic Romance.

Owen produces high quality, original compositions to brief. He’s flexible, friendly and accommodating and turns around top stuff in no time at all! Very talented and a pleasure to work with.
