"To read your own poetry in public is a kind of mental incest".
-Brendan Behan's father quoted by Shay Duffrin in his one-man show "Confessions of an Irish Rebel" 1984
"Working with music as much as I do I’m often looking for music that I think will stick, stand the test of time. Clayton Sabine’s work will do just that. I will go so far as to say – if you don’t like this new album, then you don’t have a soul." - Peter A. Case, Program Director, WKVT AM & FM............................................."This Vermont songwriter sings like a more affected Will Oldham and writes like a young allegiant to John Prine and Elliott Smith. Literal and even-handed folk turmoil". —Grayson Currin, www.indyweek.com.................................

With vocals that have been described as “powerful and intimate”, and lyrics rich with wit and pathos, Sabine has developed a devoted following. Sabine has been performing for the past decade, as a solo act, as a member of the vocal harmony trio Relative Strangers, and most recently as the front man of his original folk-rock group. With the addition of an extremely talented backing band, Sabine has transformed his sound from intense solo performer to gripping ensemble, adding the layered arrangements of rock and pop music to his thoughtful and poignant songwriting.
