THROUGH THE WAVE OF BLUE

by Philip Clemo

Release date: 2024

RELEASE DATE: 1st November 2024

“The sterling seventh studio album from Scottish artist Philip Clemo is further proof that he operates on a higher aural plane altogether.”

Grant Moon, Prog Magazine

–

“Clemo is very much in control of the scene-scape… The album is steeped in narrative filmic development, incrementally spreading out from brooding melancholia to a resolution of pulsing assertion.”

Martin Longley, Jazzwise

–

“There are soundscapes which bathe your ears in a multitude of sounds; and others which are sparse, light and minimalist. Clemo creates a master canvas… a moving, memorable body of work.”

George Cole, Jazz Views
