Guitarist Neil Clark

The Feeling Sound Podcast Season Three - Episode Five Raised in Glasgow and now living in the city of Toronto, guitarist Neil Clark played with many bands in his original home city, including

Newspeak with Alan McGee and Andrew Innes, before meeting Lloyd Cole and Blair Cowan, with the three forming the nucleus of Lloyd Cole and the Commotions.

They recorded three studio albums, Rattlesnakes, Easy Pieces and Mainstream, and Neil was co-writer of some of the groups best-known songs - Are You Ready To Be Heartbroken, Rattlesnakes and Lost Weekend, while also playing the multi-layered guitar coda to Forest Fire.

He has remained a regular collaborator with Lloyd Cole over the years, including contributions to his past two albums Guesswork and On Pain. In addition to his work with Cole, he has recorded with many other artists internationally. Recent projects include Lake and Sea with singer Theresa McKay, post-jazz trio Clark, Jones and Pottie and the solo album, Sundogs.- all of which can be found at neilclark.bandcamp.com.

We caught up with Neil at his Toronto home, where we talked about his incredible musical journey, the stories behind some of the tunes that make up the phenomenal Commotion’s back catalogue, touring … and above all else, what music means to him.
