Striking a rich balance between raucous fun with friends and serious moments alone, Roman Clarke mints a new kind of alt-pop: explorations in sound that share experiences in life and love. While likely to find him at the local with a huge, warm smile and deep hugs for all his friends, Roman Clarke spends most of his time on stage or in the studio collaborating with artists like The Bros. Landreth, Boy Golden, and many others. With over 10 years of experience touring, writing, producing, and performing music with various close friends and colleagues, Roman Clarke has the technical and emotional skills to make music that makes anyone feel at home and loved.
With three albums under his belt, his next release “FRIENDS” speaks to how intense things can get with a lover, and how it’s not always possible to stay friends after. His delicate yet powerful voice leads the song, starting gently and landing in a powerful refrain. Smooth and full production backs the vocal progression, making what could be a song of sadness and heartbreak into a single worthy of the dancefloor.
And this may be Clarke’s distinct superpower: even the hardest moments can make a soundtrack to dance through life to. As the first of a new batch of songs, Roman Clarke re-enters his solo project with a strong cast of friends and collaborators supporting, including co-producer Keiran Placatka and Bros. Landreth’s label, Birthday Cake. Surrounded by this circle of close friends turned collaborators, Clarke seeks to share the distinct beauty and awe he finds in life through songs - dance-worthy and otherwise.
