Greg Clifford

Alternative // Dublin

Greg Clifford is a Dublin based independent musician and interdisciplinary artist. Clifford’s style is an authentic amalgamation of alternative rock, modern pop, folk and classical guitar fingerpicking, as well as weaving subtle electronic elements into his body of work. His compositions exude honesty and purity in which he explores thought-provoking subject matters and astute musical textures.

The prolific songster, who holds a Masters in contemporary composition, has a number of releases under his belt including Why Can't You See EP (2015), Quodlibet LP (2017) and the 20/20 Vision LP (2020) among a plethora of other EPs and singles, such as ‘Long Lost Friend’, which bagged Clifford an iTunes Number 1 in March 2021, and ‘Redemption’, which topped the Singer-Songwriter Charts in October.

April 2022 Clifford released his eagerly anticipated album Lines of Desire, which is accompanied by a 13,000 word book that reveals the sources of inspiration behind the songs, as well as a 40-minute documentary about the making of the LP.

Aside from his solo music endeavors Clifford works as a session musician, producer and arranger. He has also toured internationally with the Diversus Guitar Ensemble, scored for the RTE Concert Orchestra and guest lectures and composes avant-garde works for the Sound Training Centre. The eclectic artist, who is a videographer that has produced documentaries and videos for musicians and spoken word artists, is also currently writing a semi-autobiographical book about his time gigging in Switzerland with a parody Irish trad rock band entitled The Diary Entries of a Somewhat Degenerate.
