Overview
Overview
Clive gave his first public performance at the age of eight as a very nervous, and partly hidden, harmonica player but he has been performing in full view at folk clubs and festivals for more than twenty-five years now. He is particularly fond of English traditional songs and shanties but also sings contemporary pieces written in the traditional vein. He has performed at venues in most parts of England with occasional excursions into Scotland and Wales as well as in Holland, Ireland, New Zealand and the USA.
Clive also sings as a member of The Laners, and as one half of Tom Perry & Clive Brooks. He made his first CD as half of another a cappella duo in 2005 and has provided chorus/backing vocals and/or instrumental accompaniment on half-a-dozen CDs for other performers. As well as singing both solo and in various groupings, he has played for two groups of Appalachian dancers and a Morris side and was also a member of a well-established ceilidh band.
