Great write-up on North by East West!

December 13, 2010 / Shawn Clarke

I was just checking my email before bed (yeah, bed at 11:15, I know... I know...) and I came across this wonderful write up at one of my favorite blogs; North by East West. Writer Daniel Dell, really digs the album!

"With almost a timeless sound Shawn Clarke’s new record almost pours out the speakers and fills the room so casually that you can’t quite figure out how it got there in the first place, and more over, how you ever lived without it before. This album could have come out at any time in the last 40 years and still feel as fresh and natural, a folk masterpiece."

Can't beat that!

Welcome!

Hey there folks! Welcome to the official Shawn Clarke website! I've been sitting on this domain name for a couple years. After much deliberation I finally decided to do something in blog form. One main reason for that is that it's easy. I don't need to pay for a host (poor musician) and I don't have to rely on someone to do my updates. Therefore, i may need your help, if you have any suggestions on how I can improve this site, let me know.

Feel free to peruse! Everything seems to be up and running. Notice I have 3 shows coming up, Toronto (Tranzac) this Thursday; London (The Black Shire) this Saturday; and Toronto again (Press Club) on January 6th. It's almost Christmas, so if you're looking for a copy of "Like Birds too Tired to Fly" you can either click the "iTunes" tab for a digital copy, or the "Purchase" tab for a physical copy.

I think that about covers it... oh wait, I also have a Mailing List on the left (and below this paragraph). I can keep you updated on all the musical goings-on, give-aways, etc. I promise not to bug you too much, and I won't sell your email to spammers. Also, if you join now, you can receive a special free Christmas download from yours truly.

That's all for now, Keep in touch!
