CLIPPER (EX ARROYO)
Alt Country/Rock'n'Roll Band
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Rock'n'roll band country & Irish influenced, Clipper continues what Arroyo started.
I actually renewed the band and its targets in December 2006; Clipper focuses on
songwriting and its own sound, which is closer to rock'n'roll than before, still remaining
on the folk and country field.
Although it's been through many changes rock'n'roll comes from folk, country and blues,
just listen to Hank Williams and you'll know what I'm talking about.
Our sound hosts European and American tradition, like an old clipper ship.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
