A multi-talented songwriter, musician, promoter and more who first rose to prominence as a founding member of acclaimed Glasgow indie-pop foursome Astrid, Clark has been a pro-active presence in the underground music scene for over two decades.

“A superb piece of jangle pop classicism, it seems to reference everyone from The Byrds and Big Star through to Teenage Fanclub” 
CLASH MAGAZINE

“His recordings are full of beautiful, haunted melodies and stripped down plaintive acoustic beauty.” 
JOHN ROBB, LOUDER THAN WAR

“Immense choruses and deep heartfelt lyrics that serve to tighten the throat and quicken the pulse. It is vital and organic music: guitar driven indie pop at its very best”
BACK SEAT MAFIA

“A hybrid of Damien Rice and The Decemberists, Clark explores themes of love and drink through dark metaphors. With Clark, the macabre is beautiful.” Marni Epstein_The Eastsider LA

“Five songs with a heart of gold.” Kevin Bronson_Buzz Bands LA

“The EP is one that the listener can tell comes straight from the heart. It’s lyrically smart, with five tracks that dance on the border of being pop songs but with no forced-catchy element, just swoon-worthy melodies.” Laura Gesualdi_In Your Speakers
