In the eight years since the release of his debut album, he has toiled through creativity's long winters and now offers up \u003ci\u003eThe Garden\u003c\/i\u003e, an 11-track alternative folk record featuring songs written with Iain Archer and Jacknife Lee. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn spending the best part of a decade writing and recording \u003ci\u003eThe Garden\u003c\/i\u003e, Clements has \"accidentally journaled\" the key moments in his life. He began close to home with long-time producer Michael Keeney (Foy Vance, SOAK) in Bangor, County Down, meeting one evening a week to experiment with new songs. Under the guidance of Gary Lightbody (Snow Patrol), Clements was encouraged to take his time, and to explore co-writing. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing from influences across indie folk and alternative rock, Clements cites Bon Iver, The National and James Vincent McMorrow as inspirations for\u003ci\u003e The Garden\u003c\/i\u003e. The album moves deftly through a musical backdrop that seamlessly melds electronic elements with the essence of folk instrumentation, with Clements' unflinching vocals guiding listeners through themes of love, loss and belief.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Third Bar","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50840421663051,"sku":"2228859","price":25.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/3000x3000_album_AW_65899a8e_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1731652509"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/collections\/david-c-clements.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
