Roman Clarke

Roman Clarke - High Note

Roman Clarke’s prolific catalogue reflects his hardworking prairie roots, but the groove that comes through in his music borrows from influences far wider than his rural Manitoban upbringing. Blurring the lines between pop and R&B he uses his unique voice and style to tell honest stories juxtaposed over tracks that snap your head back with thick beats and uplifting synth arrangements. He’s a versatile musician, equally comfortable behind the kit, at the piano, in front of a microphone, or in the producer’s chair. His self-produced full-length album, SCORCHER, is evidence of this. With the exception of a few choice string parts, Roman wrote every lyric, played every instrument, and sang every vocal. His command of the creative process was fundamental in making this record and he was at the helm for every step. On SCORCHER, Roman brings his uncompromising focus to the songs, the album, and to the stage.
