Beautiful Voice

I first heard Clare at City Walk one night...I made the comment (before I saw her) that "This is the kind of music more venues should play...who is this?" My teenage son said "It's that girl over there!" The sound was so pure...I thought it was being pumped through a speaker system! I of course bought her White Bamboo CD and LOVE IT! There is something hauntingly beautiful about her voice...and it sticks with you. Now...I'm just waiting for more!

Sounds Effortlessly Beautiful

Clare has an amazing knack to craft lyrics and melodies that float airily atop her graceful and unpretentious guitar work. I enoyed hearing her live when I was in LA and was extremely excited when her CD finally came out. Definitely worth checking out!
