'New York Hummingbird' is the fourth solo album by much acclaimed Edinburgh-based sing-songwriter Dean Owens. Produced in New York and New Jersey by Ray Ketchem with Dave Derby, the album features a host of New York, New Jersey and Nashville musicians.

Known formerly of the much loved Americana outfit The Felsons, Owens has been writing and performing solo for the past few years and 'New York Hummingbird' is the latest chapter in his musical evolution.

'New York Hummingbird' is a perfect synergy of old and new, an exercise in the art of pure songcraft, employing timeless pop nous - the album is compact, concise, deliberate, focussed and refined. By pop we mean the Brill Building, or quintessentially British pop like Prefab Sprout and Aztec Camera - timeless, catchy, effortless, but emotive.
