B&S Premiere: dbClifford 'Away'

B&S EXCLUSIVE: Listen to db Clifford
B&S EXCLUSIVE: Listen to db Clifford

B&S one to watch dbClifford drops his new album "Lucky Me" in the spring but fear not, if like me you can't wait that long, he's released radio/ear-friendly, and ever so catchy "Away" (via Smadhi Music) to get us in the mood for more great tunes to come...lucky us!

Super quick breakdown on the man himself... After releasing a debut solo album "Recyclable" in Canada, Holland, France and Japan, Clifford’s single "Don’t Wanna" topped the international charts for 3 weeks.

Second album "Feet Above The Ground" (2011) continued to display Clifford's vast array of talents, which not included recording/producing all the songs on his but he also played all the instruments on the album too. True to form, Clifford also directed and produced the music video for the album’s title track.

Dateline 2017: New album "Lucky Me" recorded at the illustrious surroundings of Abbey Road Studios/Metropolis Studios in London, plus studios in British Columbia and France. And although it's slated for release in spring of 2018 AND it's the artist's first album since 2011 - after receiving the John Lennon Award for Best Pop Song of The Year for his song "New State Of Mind' from his last album - you kind of get the feeling, especially after hearing his latest single, that the new album is going to be well worth waiting for!
