Xav’s musical style could best be described as imaginative, playful, and
fantastical with a wondering sophistication and curiosity that welcome
listeners into his rainbow world of kaleidoscopic sounds, textures, and
free spirited emotions: all under the umbrella of his unique brand of 70s-
tinged, free spirited psychedelic pop songs.
Whether performing solo with his guitar or with a band, Xav’s shows are
engaging, cheeky and raw. Full of audience interaction and an
unpredictable energy.

His new album is produced by Grammy winning Mike Lindsay (Tunng / LUMP) pushing Xav's songwriting into even wilder and wonkier soundscapes.

'A glorious swirl of indie vocals, swooning guitars and laidback beats, wrapping you in a multicoloured haze of euphoria.' EARMILK

'Beautiful Song' John Kennedy, Radio X - 'Hot One'

'There's always a playful and imaginative feel to genius Xav Clarke's music.' Abbie McCarthy, BBC Introducing Live Session

'Xav Clarke sounds like he inhabits a surreal wonderland; a place far more colourful and fantastical than plain old Earth. Whether he's composing for cartoons or making music for himself, there's a wide-eyed, dreamlike quality to his work' COMPOSER

'Working similarly to Badly Drawn Boy's work on the movie About A Boy. Clarke's soundtrack reflects upon the big subjects of life and death with unguarded innocence.' Promonews

'A warm and accomplished score, which recalls the soundtracks of Jon Brion' Filmhounds

Daringly honest and yet always witty lyricism. A stellar effort from an artist who is clearly full of innovative artistic ideas. Backseat Mafia

'His voice is a hazy mist that wisps and settles on your skin' The Other Side Reviews

‘'Being Alive’ instantly captivates with a synthy soundscape and the beautiful vocal harmonies of Xav Clarke. The track radiates with feel good vibes despite the lyrical theme of the song.' Music Crowns
