Optimistic by Clayton Doley 

Clayton Doley, the internationally acclaimed keyboard player, singer and composer, is set to unveil his latest musical masterpiece titled "Optimistic." This eagerly awaited follow up to his legendary 2015 album ‘Bayou Billabong’ showcases Doley's exceptional New Orleans piano skills combined with the electrifying blues guitar talents of none other than Ray Beadle.

 "Optimistic" is a testament to Doley's musical versatility and his ability to seamlessly blend genres while staying true to his blues roots. The album's tracks heavily feature his mighty horn section and fat rhythm section as well as the fiery guitar work that has earned Ray Beadle a place among the greats. Doley's thought provoking compositions are perfectly complemented by Beadle's soul-stirring guitar solos, creating a exciting and harmonious musical journey into the blues and beyond.

Clayton Doley is a giant of the Australian Blues Scene, Sydney Blues Society's Keyboard Player of the Year for the fifth year running, Clayton has played with a who's who of international artists. His virtuosity on the hammond organ is unmatched and has seen him tour the world performing with artists such as Christone 'Kingfish' Ingram, Joe Bonamassa, Walter 'Wolfman' Washington, Harry Manx, Steve Cropper & Donald 'Duck' Dunn (Booker T & the M.G.'s, Blues Brothers), David Garibaldi (Tower Of Power), Jimmy Barnes, The Divinyls, Hubert Sumlin, Mojo Buford, Louisiana Red, Guitar Shorty, Renee Geyer, The Mighty Reapers, Eugene Hideaway Bridges - to name a few. 

The most unique and sophisticated voice in contemporary retro soul today, Clayton is a master musician, a killer boogie woogie piano player, a super funky Hammond player, and a remarkable singer/songwriter with a passion for creating new works that could have been recorded by the R&B greats from the 50’s and 60’s. 

His current project Clayton Doley’s Bayou Billabong, featuring Sydney Jazz and Blues royalty, captures the essence of the New Orleans Blues piano tradition while fusing contemporary Australiana and Americana with all the might and power of a 10 piece band.
