Folk Bands and Artists
Clayton Denwood
“He flies the flag for UK Americana in fine style, there’s a Woodstock vibe going on which is unsurprising since he’s been there and done that (no, literally – he used to live there). There is sufficient diversity in the tunes to keep everybody happy…folksy, bluesy, funky, country stuff…”
Paul Villiers – Americana UK
“With a band of top-flight players its a unique sound and sensibility that’s all his own. The new music mines a deep vibe that draws in – and draws upon – everything from straight-up blues to bright folk-rock (that “wild, thin mercury sound”) to brooding jazz riffs in a Van Morrison mode.””
”Chris Floyd -Empire Burlesque
”Have not heard anything that recalls so much Basement Tapes era Dylan/Band (with undertones of other Cosmick Americk artists the good ol’ Grateful Dead) in a long time. Extra bonus, Denwoods self-penned songs are rather good themselves…”
Steve Henwood- Bath Folk Festival
“Denwood pours the unsettled spirit of the age into worldly country-ish stuff of the Bob Dylan/Neil Young variety…”
John Harris – the Guardian
“Clayton Denwood has a voice that demands to be heard. He describes himself as a ceremonial balladeer but his songs truly stand on their own; they are beautiful, touching, blazing, aching, poetic and heartfelt. A poet far beyond his rightful time…”
