How did you get started?
When I was 13, I found a keyboard in a charity shop and started teaching myself and playing covers which helped me study how songs were pieced together. A few years later I bought a guitar and began writing my own material which definitely became a therapy during my teenage years. I started putting some tracks online to build my profile and gain some feedback and recognition.
How would you best describe your live show:
A blast of emotion and attitude.
What shows do you have coming up?
14th December – Love Child single launch show @ The Gallimaufry, Bristol
(Fun fact, Clements supported folk punk king, Frank Turner on a couple of dates during his latest UK tour)
Tell us about your latest release:
My latest track ‘Love Child’ is about people who think they know it all when they don’t. I wrote it about a conversation I had with someone who thought they were right about everyone and everything and it really wound me up.
