We are thrilled to announce Maisy Owen will be supporting Charlie Parr at Club Cafe on Saturday Nov 1st! Get tickets while they are still available folks…

Maisy Owen, a Nashville native, has been surrounded by music and the art of songcraft just about all of her life. First came the viola at the age of 9, then guitar where she embraced fingerpicking while soaking in influences from Nick Drake, Bert Jansch, Mazzy Star and David Olney. Raised in a musical family, her father Gwil Owen is an Academy Award-nominated songwriter.
Maisy’s unique sound, musical truth and stirring vocals inhabit Dark On A Sunny Day, her debut album released in May of 2026 on Tompkins Square and produced by Robin Eaton (known for his work with Jill Sobule).
Drawn to melancholic melodies and dark poetic imagery, Dark On A Sunny Day has been garnering accolades from the likes of MOJO, Uncut, The Bluegrass Situation, KCRW, BBC Radio and Nashville Scene among others.

Presented by 91.3 WYEP
