An old salt, peers out from the bolts. 
Takes a look at the world on his plate.
He hands red raw, advice to his mate.
He knows that summer times drawing short. 

The cheese and the pickle, the bells, and the whistle away.
Working slowly - just waiting for much better days, in the haze. 

Stuck till Friday, an eye on the wall.
An important call, what's the date?
A punter comes in, a punch on the chin, 
or an old baccy tin, a long wait. 

The posters of girls on the wall have not aged like his face.
Turning slowly, just hoping for much better days. Through the haze. 

The cheese and the trickle of money that ties to the place.
Working slowly - just waiting for much better days. in a daze. 

An old smith, a rock megalith,
which was uncovered minutes too late. 
Having lain in the darkness for countless odd years without the forbearance to wait. 

The keeping of vigils and banging of anvils, 
the strength in the arms,
It fades slowly, just waiting for much better days.
Borne away. 

An old smith,  a weary eyed sit, and a look down at the ground. 
At the ground.

Clive loves to make music, he has always written his own music and has always tended to lean towards instrumentals. Having discovered that he can sing in tune, his more recent songs are vocal compositions but instrumentals still appear occasionally.

Clive's music covers a wide range of genre's from Country, through Blues and Jazz, Rock and into progressive rock. 

Clive's influences are many and varied, Vangelis, Tomita, The Alan Parsons Project, Paul Simon, John Denver, Billy Joel, Bob Segar, Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, Neil Diamond, Rick Wakeman, Gerry Rafferty to name a few, so many good bands and  songwriters! 

Clive writes new songs constantly but only records a few, an important driving factor in his music is that other people enjoy it and are even able to relate in some way.

Clive does not use any form of AI in his lyric writing or musical compositions however occasional use is made of AI to produce track artwork to avoid copyright issues.

Vassilis is primarily a passionate music enthusiast. He is also an independent singer/songwriter and producer based in Manchester, UK.

With over two decades of live performances under his belt, Vassilis has long been a fixture in the music scene. More recently, he has made a notable impact as a recording artist, as his self-produced debut single, "A Quest For Long Lost Memories", released in 2020, marked the beginning of a series of well-received tracks, including the 2021 EP "Return To Innocence".

Through his music, Vassilis reflects on the nuances of everyday life, adopting the perspective of a curious and thoughtful observer. His songs offer a window into a personal yet open-ended interpretation of the world. Tracks such as Better Days Are Here, All We Have Is Now, and Are You Ready To Move On? highlight his knack for crafting memorable melodies and delivering them with a warm, sincere vocal style.

His sound spans genres - from indie folk to rock and dream pop - and is characterized by rich vocal harmonies, atmospheric synths, and resonant guitar lines. Inspired by the freedom of independent pop aesthetic and sensibilities, his music places the focus on creating an immersive listening experience rooted in both emotion and melody.

As he continues to captivate audiences with his soulful, genre-blending style, Vassilis remains true to his artistic vision. His work reflects a deep dedication to his craft and a genuine love for music.

All of Vassilis’s releases are now available on major digital platforms, as well as on his personal online music spaces.

We are the music makers. We are the dreamers of dreams.
