Laughing Dog Music Present The Clifftown Story - M G BOULTER - Touring Autumn 2022
Clifftown is a celebration of the history and
culture of the English seaside. In this show songwriter and musician M G
Boulter plays music from his 2021 album ‘Clifftown’ (on
Hudson Records), which charts his personal history of growing up in the seaside
suburbia of Southend-on-Sea in Essex. Here you will find the neon lights and
burnt sugar smells of a Saturday night seafront but also the solitary Essex
noir of the salt marshland. With stories collected from his time creating the
companion podcast series ‘The Clifftown Podcast’ and accompanied by a full band
M G will bring his unique take on the English seaside to the stage.
Serving his apprenticeship in numerous bands in the hotbed of the Southend-on-Sea pub rock scene (the precursors of which were household names such as Dr Feelgood and Eddie and the Hotrods), M G has been quietly working at creating rich and evocative story songs since 2013. M G creates vignettes of suburban lives and seaside communities and is a contemporary voice in the long tradition of the singer-songwriter. Often referred to as the artist’s artist M G has been a much sought after collaborator in the folk and Americana scenes, having significant tenures in the Simone Felice Group, The Duke and the King, Emily Portman’s Coracle Band, Blue Rose Code and The Owl Service.
Having previously released two albums and numerous EPs,
Clifftown is M G’s most complete work to date creating an immersive world rich
with ordinary lives glimpsed through fairground grease and mindless 9 to 5
jobs. As much social commentary as an honest picture postcard of his hometown,
Clifftown is an exquisite and life-affirming exploration of modern suburbia and
the British seaside by one of the UK’s finest
