 m Folk Sensation Chris Cleverley returns to his hometown for an exciting c

  meditative songwriting to soothe the frayed edges of this fractured moder
 n world.\nFeat. A very special guest appearance from Birmingham fingerstyl
 e virtuoso Amit Dattani\n*****\nChris Cleverley\nChris Cleverley was born 
 under a solstice moon\, in the honeysuckle mysticism of a late 80s Midsumm
 er\, where the symbolic sounds of ‘Hunky Dory’\, ‘Graceland’ and 
 ‘Ladies of The Canyon’ echoed from the woodchip walls of the South Bir
 mingham terrace where he was raised\; quiet and curious\, saturnine and sh
 y. Here\, the soul of a young artist was shaped.\n\nThree decades on and h
 is unique brand of dreamy\, psychedelic folk has taken him from the column
 s and airwaves of The Telegraph\, Sunday Times and BBC 6 Music\, to the wo
 rld-renowned stages of Cambridge Folk Festival &amp\; the English Folk Exp
 o\, twice earning him FATEA Magazine’s ‘Male Artist of the Year’ Awa
 rd.\n\nCome bask in the intricate fingerstyle and lush ambient soundscapes
  of this true guitar-man\, inspired by the Lo-fi American Greats\, Elliott
  Smith\, Sufjan Stevens &amp\; Phoebe Bridgers\; A curious tapestry weaved
  from the hazy psychedelia of the 60s folk revival and the soulful oblivio
 n of the 90s Pacific Northwest.\n\n\nAs he brings together fresh material 
 for his 4th studio album\, join Chris as he unveils exclusive first glimps
 es of never-before-heard brand new material.\n\nTaking place in the heart 
 of Kings Heath's iconic park\, audiences can enjoy this serene and verdant
  sanctuary\, nestled within Birmingham's urban frenzy. Soak in the soothin
 g musical sounds\, with a mid-concert opportunity to explore the magical s
 etting on this warm late-Spring evening.\n\n"Rather Lovely Electro-Folk" -
  Radcliffe &amp\; Maconie - BBC 6 MUSIC\n\n"The feel of Elliott Smith and 
 Sufjan Stevens" ★★★★ - Scottish Daily Express\n\n"Frighteningly br
 illiant works" - The Daily Star ('50 artists to watch in 2023')\n\n&nbsp\;
