Owens Huang began his musical journey during the COVID-19 shutdown in 2020. In his youth, adventurous backpacking trips through countries such as India and Tibet profoundly shaped his musical expression and life philosophy. These unconventional explorations infused his compositions with introspective themes and a unique blend of Eastern artistic elements, seamlessly interwoven with classical, jazz, and metal influences. Drawing inspiration from his current role as a hedge fund manager, Owens delves into the dynamic realms of finance and global events, propelling his creative work to weave together themes of Asian history, culture, philosophy, geopolitics, and market dynamics. In 2023, he premiered his first sonata, Place of Origins, at Taiwan’s National Recital Hall. In 2024, Owens will debut The Silicon Island in August in Taiwan, followed by Universal Connection in October in Mountain View, California. In 2025, he spoke at the CLSA Japan Forum and hosted his first concert in Tokyo.
