Dear Hendrik,
My name is Carl Cleves, troubadour, author and musicologist, born in Mechelen, a traditional Flemish town in Belgium, settled in Byron Bay with many years of international touring. I am the author of the trilogy Tarab: Travels with My Guitar, Dancing with the Bones and Soundtracks of my Life, an epic memoir of high adventure and the search for musical ecstasy.
My seven solo albums and six with The Hottentots, co-founded with singer-songwriter Parissa Bouas, have won international praise and numerous awards, including Music OZ, NCEIA and Australian Songwriters Association Award for Best Australian lyricist. ‘Songs both intimate and powerful’; ‘a vision whimsical and wise’; a guitar style ‘utterly captivating, pregnant with unexpected nuance’. I would like to introduce you to my new album (#13) titled ‘On Borrowed Time’. It ain’t rock, jazz or hip hop, but music & words in the songwriter tradition. I have enjoyed a long career as a musician and author with a broad perspective and have recorded this latest album at 82 years of age. I would love you to have a listen to something different.
