about
Clayton MacDonald studied jazz and electro-acoustics at Concordia University in Montreal, while his summers were spent busking on Prince-Arthur street. In 2003, Clayton released his first full-length album, “Womb Temperature”. Track 2 from that album, “Lightly”, was chosen for the Café Méliès 2 compilation. Last year, Clayton was featured on “Le Zoo”, an homage in song to the poetry of legendary Quebec film-maker Jean-Claude Lauzon. Also appearing on this Orange Music release were Quebec luminaries Jean Leloup, Stefie Shock and Djelem Project. On May 6th, Clayton released his latest electric-folk (that’s a sonic gumbo of folk, reggae, Appalachian blues, rock and R&B) opus on the Orange Music label, "Dog Days Of August". With a subtle mix of fluid songwriting, spontaneous hooks, literate-yet-catchy lyrics and clever production, all augmented by Clayton's distinctive and warm croon, the album is bound for critical and popular acclaim.
