CLEMENTINE LOVELL

​Clementine Lovell is an award winning musician with roots in both English and Irish folk. She is ‘as close as you can get to the whole package of composer, musician and singer who can both write and interpret music with a sound that is all her own’ (Folking).

 

Described as having a magical voice that ‘resonates and shimmers’ (Americana UK), one of those voices you just can't ignore, Clementine Lovell’s exceptional musicianship and quality of songwriting draws you in and holds you captive. Her voice has been compared to English greats the calibre of Sandy Denny and Maddy Prior, while her latest album drew comparisons with Kate Bush, Frankie Archer, and Joanna Newsom. Clementine’s award winning debut album Westbound (Fatea Debut Album of 2025), produced by Marion Fleetwood (Feast of Fiddles) and featuring Ric Sanders (Fairport Convention) and Robbie K. Jones (Track Dogs), is rooted in English and Irish folk and is ‘outstanding’ (Folk London Magazine), ‘spectacular’ (Fatea), ‘stunning’ (Bright Young Folk) and ‘contemporary and innovative’ (Irish Music Magazine). Her new album Permutations is a collaboration with multi-instrumentalist Gergely Nagy, who helped shape the album's distinct soundscape by blending experimental, electronic, and traditional folk textures. The album has ‘marked her out as one of the most exciting new voices on the wider folk scene’ (Fatea Magazine) and is ‘superb’ (Celtic Music Radio), ‘an incredible collision of ancient and modern’ (Marc Higgins).

"...several things strike me about her as a performer. The first is an incredible voice ...the second is the quality of her song writing. She can take an idea and turn it into something both wonderful and remarkable. She can take a simple concept and make it magical." FATEA Magazine
