Chris Cleverley was born under a solstice moon, in the honeysuckle mysticism of a late 80s Midsummer.
Cleverley’s boundary-shattering ‘Dream-Folk’ songwriting sits on the cutting edge of modern folk. 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.

Hey everyone. I’m happy to share the Official Music Video for my latest single ‘Nausea’. It was created by the superb visual artist Martin D Hyde. The song is about the emotional claustrophobia that many of us experience from the sheer act of existing in this head spinning 21st Century world we have made. Some days I’m dizzy, some days I’m nauseous from it all. Martin’s incredible vision helped to convey this perfectly.
I’m really happy to share the 2nd single from my forthcoming album. It’s called ‘Still Life’.
The song paints an apocalyptic vision of a natural world drained of its essence and vitality as trees breath through respirator machines, while the last remaining animals stand motionless in the glass exhibits of derelict museums.
The Official Music Video is out now too. it was made by the supreme Martin D Hyde.
