"DANIEL CLAY doesn't travel the same dusty roads as folk shouters Woody Guthrie or Bob Dylan. His stark and stylish strumming and ominous songwriting offer a welcome sense of malevolence to the craft. Whether singing from the rooftop of the Mattress Factory Lofts or mesmerizing audiences at gallery shows with religious melancholy, Clay is a man in black, pursued by a cloud of the same color. He's a sinner in the hands of an angry God. Only his voice will set him free."

Whenever I listen to your song 'Children with Machetes' I think of Henry and Zach running around Matinicus 2-3 summers ago with Machetes and other sharp implements.
