| Pals from their Moodists days, Dave Graney & Clare Moore reconnect with guitarist Malcolm Ross for a swank live recording. |
Here's the scoop...
Dave Graney & Clare Moore with Georgio Valentino & Malcolm Ross is the second of three “from the vaults” releases from Graney and Moore in the year of our pandemic, 2020. (Follows Dave & Clare's previous live recording In Concert with Robin Casinader which came out in May).
Songs recorded live in Hull and London in the UK as part of a tour in late 2017. Dave Graney on acoustic guitar and vocals, Clare Moore on keys, backing vocals, drums, Georgio “The Dove” Valentino on bass and Malcolm Ross on electric guitar and lap steel.
Songs drawn from across Graney and Moore’s career and three songs from Malcolm Ross. 17 Songs delivered live in a performance masterclass from a slow burn semi acoustic pop beginning to a blazing electric raveup to finish with all kinds of side roads along the way. A one off recording from a one off band.
Dave Graney and multi instrumentalist Clare Moore were in The Moodists from 1978 to 1986. Then the White Buffaloes/Coral Snakes 1987-1997.
