"There are no gigs planned at the moment as we have all been doing other projects for a bit. Gavin has been singing with the band Unkle and recording a solo album with myself, Ali and I have been doing some soundtrack stuff and Im about to release third solo album. It was a tough time for Clayhill a while back so we've had to take time to regroup !! Were just finishing a new collection of songs and they should be ready at the end of April... keep you posted about gigs...there will be one eventually !! - Ted Barnes
Clayhill on This Is England soundtrack
We're overjoyed to say that there's a Clayhill track being used on the brand new film from renowned British director Shane Meadows. The critically acclaimed and prize-winning 'This Is England' is out in cinemas now and the cover of The Smiths 'Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want' has been chosen to appear in the film.
The track is played in its entirety (or near enough) at a very poignant part of the film and is getting a great reception, and so to celebrate this, we're releasing a special download Clayhill compilation via iTunes. Titled 'Afterlight', it showcases some of the finest Clayhill tracks and is going to be available for less than a fiver.
Formed in 2002, Clayhill are a band born from three very different musical backgrounds. Ali (bassist, keyboards) and Ted (guitar, keyboards) were both working on Beth Ortons Trailer Park album when they first identified former Sunhouse frontman Gavin Clark as the bands lead singer. Originally, Ali was a member of the experimental electronica band Red Snapper, while Gavin fronted Sunhouse and Ted was concentrating on his solo album Short Scenes. Incidentally, both Ted and Ali were co-working on the music for Once Upon A Time In The Midland a film by critically acclaimed UK director Shane Meadows when they discovered that Gavin was one of his oldest friends. Ted and I had wanted to try working together on something, says Ali. Once I heard Gavs voice I wanted him to be the next member of the band which wed decided to form.
