About
“A master storyteller, one influenced not by the shine of pop-culture but by the dirt of real life.” – Joseph Hudak — Rolling Stone Country
“I tend to think of songs as the whiskey of writing. Distilled down to the essence powerful, concentrated, immediate. You can take it all in and really feel it in just seconds.” — SLAID CLEAVES
The characters in Slaid Cleaves’ songs live in unglamorous reality. They work dead-end jobs, they run out of money, they grow old, they hold on to each other (or not), and they die. With an eye for the beauty in everyday life, he tells their stories, bringing a bit of empathy to their uncaring world.
