Oli n Clive

about

“pirates rum, violins, dancing bears, saws, gypsys drowning... The bonnie and clyde of saw rock...” Oli 'n' Clive have cello, drums, ukuleles, bass, cornet, harmonica, musical saw, guitar, violins, autoharp and eggs, and will hopefully have more instruments soon. Oli is the singer, and Clive is the rest of the band, which is Sanjay, Clare, Pottsy, Maddy, Ruby and Taku. Sometimes they sound like the raw end of Dolly Parton and sometimes like the blithe end of Tom Waits. They've played with bands like Absentee, Semifinalists, and The Rumble Strips. They’re currently recording more songs with Joe Goddard from Hot Chip. “Oli ‘n’ Clive are lovely – they remind me of another band with two names and an ampersand” Sam Steddy –Rare FM User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
