The Dissolute Society explores Raph Clarkson’s interests in contemporary improvisation, European jazz, 20th century classical music, poetry, spoken word, song, and soulful grooves. Performed by some of London’s most innovative and in-demand musicians, these varied elements are brought together through a highly personal and expressive narrative, exploring themes of family history, grief, friendship and hope. 

Featuring Fini Bearman (vocals), Naomi Burrell (violin), Zosia Jagodzinska (cello), Gustav Clarkson (viola), Laura Jurd (trumpet), Raph Clarkson (trombone, effects, vocals), Phil Merriman (keys) and Simon Roth (drums).

"Gritty rock-powered improv" The Guardian

* Based in Nottingham, England * An accompaniment to your dreams * All songs free to download * Music maker * Video maker * Although I set out for my music to be heard by everybody it's actually quite freeing to be unknown. Like I have a secret that only very few really know about * But I'm sharing in the hope it does reach more still * Painting out my soul through sound * No AI or voice correcting technology * Best of work highlighted here * Other accounts J R Watkins and J R Watkins II linked underneath * Search 'Beautiful Zero' on YouTube for videos and other highlighted work * Best blasted out of decent speakers * INFP 4w5 459 * Beautiful Zero is J R Watkins, all instruments and production * The dream remains * Each song resembles a part of me that I felt I needed to express at that particular point in life * So I like to feel each song has it's own soul * I first started recording at the age of 18 in 1998 * I was in a band with my brother and two best friends (The Haze/Dirty Kanvus) * We went on to support Ocean Colour Scene for a few dates in the late 2000's * OCS being a band I loved even before I knew I could play an instrument * Home recording has always been my preference as I am free to express myself exactly how I wish without compromise * I always wanted to write my own 'White Album - The Beatles' * I may not have done that but I hope you enjoy and feel the love I've put into my work that I'm sharing * Peace, love and the stars above.
