Neil Clark is a Glasgow born, Toronto based, guitarist and composer. His most recent (and first solo) recording, 'Sundogs' - much of it streaming in the player above - was released in December '08. Currently he is completing work on a new collection of widescreen guitarospheric pieces which develop the thread of the ambient guitar/electronica of Sundogs.

Prior to moving to Toronto, Neil was known as the guitar player and co-writer of the U.K. based group Lloyd Cole and the Commotions, who achieved international success with their three studio albums and tours. Popular Commotions songs are, Rattlesnakes, Are You Ready To Be Heartbroken and Jennifer She Said all of which he co-wrote, Brand New Friend - their biggest international hit, Perfect Skin - their first release, and the classic, Forest Fire, featuring his lead guitar playout. His playing with the Commotions, which blended elements of modal folk picking with modal-jazz and rock, caught the ear of a number of artists and throughout the 1990’s he worked with Canadian singer/songwriter Mae Moore, French artist Axelle Renoir, and Scottish groups, Bloomsday and the Bathers.

He has also maintained his involvement with Lloyd Cole, playing on most of his ex-bandleader's solo albums to date, including the recent, Antidepressant, to which he contributed electric, slide and acoustic guitar. Neil has scored for television and film and he has written and produced many short form pieces. He continues to apply his singular guitar voice to projects in the Toronto area and further afield.

Neil Clark's SUNDOGS album is available now on iTunes U.S., U.K.,Europe, Canada, Australia, N.Z., Japan as an iTunes Plus encoding (AAC 256Kbps high quality).
