The Entertainment CD

With a cinematic and allencompassing sound, The Clockworks introduced themselves with debut album Exit Strategy in 2023 and their selftitled EP The Clockworks in 2022, gaining acclaim from the likes of BBC 6Music and BBC Radio 1. With a soundscape that pulls from seemingly disparate regions of the musical landscape, namechecking Daft Punk next to Pixies, next to Ennio Morricone, they are influenced not only by an extensive musical palette, but also through their passion for film and literature. Lyrically, singer and lyricist James McGregor writes with purpose, integrity and emotion, balancing light with darkness and finding poetic intrigue in everyday life.They will release their new album The Entertainment in March, which was largely written and recorded independently at home, and is a project that looks at the themes of isolation, loneliness and connection.
