Chris Cleverley - Live at The Roses Theatre

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', 'Graceland' 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; With five nationally acclaimed records under his belt, and ringing endorsements from The Times, Telegraph and BBC6 Music, 2x FATEA 'Male Artist of the Year' Chris Cleverley is described as 'One of the most vital voices of his Folk generation' (KLOF)

His boundary-shattering 'Dream-Folk' songwriting sits on the cutting edge of acoustic music. Exploring powerful, human themes from displaced people to the fragile beauty of our natural world, we travel with him from the arid deserts of Syria, to the rich Mediterranean sunsets of the Cretan coastline; a captivating voyage of place, landscape, season and self. Herein lies a compendium of songs for the misfits, steeped in love, joy, grief, anxiety and empathy.
