Owen also worked with Tillett in the group, Paris Green, which "covered material ranging from Mose Allison to John Coltrane, Ray Charles to Nina Simone, and on any given night there was as many as nine or ten musicians on stage". In June 1988 Owen was the record producer for The Plunderers five-track extended play, "Trust Us". As a member of New Christs, Owen supplied guitar, piano and organ, as well as co-writing, for their debut album, "Distemper" (August 1989). Australian musicologist, Ian McFarlane, described the album as "the definitive statement on the band's sound and style. It contained a wealth of powerful tracks". However later that year the group disbanded.
