CHRIS CLEVERLY

Event Type

Genre : Music - Folk/blues/world

Description

Chris Cleverley was born under a solstice moon, in the honeysuckle mysticism of a late 80s Midsummer. As his fledgling days unfurled, the symbolic sounds of ?Hunky Dory?, ?Gracelands? and ?Ladies of The Canyon? echoed from the woodchip walls of the South Birmingham terrace where he was raised; quiet and curious, saturnine and shy.

Here, the soul of a young artist was shaped.

Fast-forward three decades; Four nationally acclaimed albums under his belt, and ringing endorsements from The Times, Telegraph and BBC6 Music. Cleverley?s boundary-shattering ?Dream-Folk? songwriting sits on the cutting edge of modern folk, exploring challenging contemporary themes from displaced people to the fragile beauty of our natural world.

A true guitar-man, his elaborate alternate tunings, percussive rhythms and ambient sound design flow beneath a visceral lyrical style inspired by the Lo-fi American Greats, Elliott Smith & Sufjan Stevens; a curious tapestry weaved from the hazy psychedelia of the 60s folk revival and the soulful oblivion of 90s Pacific Northwest.
