''The Sin demo was Claires first release. It contains covers of 'The Rolling Stones' 'Angie' and 'Paul Wellers' 'Brand New Start'. As well as her own song 'Sin'.

She has now released a brand new demo, recourded on an 8 track in a friends front room in just 2 hours, she has produced some of the most raw and beautifull deep acoustic music recourded by her to date. Songs wich reflect love, hate, polotics and so much more. 'Vickys Song' 'Wolfgang' 'lover lied' 'Bored' and 'Landslide' are available on CD and can be obtained for free if you drop her a line.

Claires first live gig was supporting banjo legend Phil Roebuck at The Joiners in Southampton on Aug 28 2006. She impressed the two hundred strong crowd with both her music and between song banter.

Over the course of the next year Claire gained more live experience and continued to write songs. She also started to form a backing band. The first member was ex-'Facelift Wired' member Peter Lane on bass.

2007 started with Claire appearing on a track called 'Dance Of The Moonflower' by the band 'Rabid Acid Badger'. Though the track is radically different to her own work. Her voice and guitar adding her own style to their song.

Between April 20th and May 4th Claire recorded her debut album: 'Only Lost Causes Are The Ones Worth Fighting For' Recorded at the 'Dugout Studios' in Fareham.

Soon after the recording was finished Claire added the secound member to her backing band; Guitarist Matt Park.

After months of problems Claires first album was finally realesed on September 1st 2007.

Currently claire is buisy wrighting songs for her new album (wich will be released later this year) and playing gigs both arround the south and the UK. Claire is also planning a tour at the start of 2009.
