Harvey Smith Salute

Thank you to all who came out to our mini 'London tour' with Lonesome French Cowby and Le Volume Courbe. We had our first proper gig at 12 bar, the second at a cafe oto sold out show and the third last night at the jamoree. Thank you to all who came. We were blown away. Looking forward to the next gig on the 26th at the Mason arms and festivals....

Now to record.

Going acoustic in Spain

We are playing the Spanish festival - 'Tanned Tin' on the 27th Jan and are going drummer-less as Mark is moving to the canal!

So, we've decided to go as acoustic as possible. That means we'd better have an uncharacteristic practice this week......

The Clientele go busking

Don't be fooled by how warm and pleasant it looks, the wind chilled our bones so much. It was very hard to make the fingers move and the mouths sing.

See for yourselves.....

Benicassim - extra gig added

We are off to Benicassim festival this weekend, The Clientele will be taking factor 50 sunscreen for our pale faces for sure.

We are playing on the Eastpak Club stage at 11pm on the Saturday and have just been told we will also be playing the Jack Daniels tent at 8pm for an acoustic 30 minute set.

We like Jack Daniels.

The last Clientele tshirt

At the end of our recent Liverpool gig, we gave the last Clientele tshirt left from the US tour, to James - the promoter. A few shots were taken but I haven't seen any yet....?

The tshirt is bright pink and large.
